No Fear
By Kristina Lipatov
The fundamental human need: love. Social media is flooded with memes about anxiety, emotional emptiness, and a kind of numbness of the soul.
Far too many identify with this reality. How does one express emotions when an entire generation considers social ineptitude more fashionable than speaking openly about personal feelings?
I know him from Instagram
With incredible support from VIRUS, the short film No Fear was created as the directorial debut of Kristina Lipatov, produced by Karl Leon Behr, and with myself as production designer in early 2019 in Hamburg.
This project is a great example of the vital role social media platforms play today. Kristina and I had been following each other on Instagram for quite some time—her networking brought together a diverse crew of creative minds, turning the shoot into an extraordinary experience.
Visually grounded in the realities of Generation Y, Kristina’s brilliant screenplay crafts moments of deep intimacy and tells the story of a young boy’s longing for his older brother in a dysfunctional family.
