The Kissinger Twins will lead a masterclass at Film Spring Open 2019

The Kissinger Twins, a London-based directing duo will lead the masterclass “Cinematic Labyrinths – Interactive Non-Linear Storytelling 2002-2019” on Wednesday 23rd of October at Przegorzały.

The digital revolution and interactivity changed most aspects of our life. How much did it affect storytelling and film? We have been working at the intersection of the film, narrative, and technology since 2003. We have written, designed and directed award-winning interactive films and experiences for brands such as Honda, Philips, Channel4 or Expedia, but also artistic and experimental works. During our masterclass, we explain the concept, talk about the film and interactive media, as well as our inspirations. From retro exploration games such as “Jet Set Willy” to the cult classic “The Saragossa Manuscript”. Then we present our interactive and immersive projects including 2002 “Attitude”, SXSW finalist “Forget Me Not”, The Webby Award winner “The Trip” and the latest @Sufferosa, the first interactive film series designed for Instagram.
