Your place or mine? A fleeting acquaintance can be exciting, adventurous, funny, but also opaque or even threatening. Shot in a single shot, Between The Lines explores the nuances of such a situation. Between the tracks of an underground station, the outlines of two people and their stories slowly emerge.
Niklas Pollmann (*1993 in Holzminden, Germany) has been studying screenwriting at the Film Academy Vienna under Prof. Götz Spielmann and directing as a module under Prof. Michael Haneke since 2015. With a background in film criticism and media studies, he works at the interface between film theory and practice. His debut short film Hurenkind & Schusterjunge was shown and honoured in Montréal, Riga, the Molodist Kyiv and Manaki Brothers Film Festival, among others.
