"Kraftakt – A Documentary on Olympic Weightlifting" is a short documentary created as part of my studies. The documentary shows what defines the sport – from hard training and precise technique to injuries, risks, and the people who accompany the athletes through progress and setbacks.
The idea, concept development, and script were developed as a team; my areas of responsibility were production, directing, camera, and post-production.
