After lengthy preparations, work begins on his first full-length feature film, “Vom Geist der Zeit.” (“The Spirit of Time”) While his grades drop, a 14-month shooting produces a 112-minute genre cross-over mixing action, horror and science fiction in the past, present and future. Peter Handke plays a guest role as an excited passer-by and lay actors from his school play the other parts. The living room in his parents’ house is closed for a period of almost two years due to filming.
