The Case You

“I invited five young actresses to spend several days with our team in a theater hall. Four years ago, they participated in the same audition, in which they experienced systematic abuse of sexual or violent nature. I was one of the contenders as well.
Many of them wanted to suppress this day as quickly as possible. Since the director continued his abuse by using the audition material to edit a whole new movie, there is currently a legal battle between the production company and the actresses taking place. Not much of it has yet reached the public.
Today, I myself study directing and explore with the women in THE CASE YOU, what occurred back then and what it now means for our lives.” -Alison Kuhn, Director of “The Case You”

Thank You for finding your way to this page. The Case You is one of my personally most important artistic projects that I have been involved in. This movie does not just tell a part of my very own story, but the story of the lovely ladies pictured above left and right next to me and many more silenced women in the industry who we hope to stand up for equally. There are many reasons I decided to participate in this project after director Alison Kuhn contacted me in late 2018. Beside being very much interested in breaking the silence, hoping to strengthen other victims and working with an exceptional team of young filmmakers, I also saw a chance and relief in not having to verbally explain my complex and tiring “case” to the world anymore, but would finally be able to refer them to our 80min film. So without further ado I am inviting you to watch our movie at one of the many upcoming international Film Festivals or in a German cinemas starting march 10th 2021. If you are a member of the media you may contact our director here or our film distributor here
