DESCRIPTION
The film is a romantic comedy with suspense elements, so that there are several genres in the mix (horror is yet another
feeling what many of the viewers experienced in their emotional disposition;). Besides the story offers a very surprising
twist ending which up to now led the audience in every screening (film festivals, movie theaters) to intense reactions.
The plot is timeless, offers fine humor, it is intelligently composed, and it's new - I’ve never seen it on screen before.
Overall the film is about a very characteristic part of human nature which turned out to be virtually indelible,
very powerful and with far-reaching consequences (the film title is based on this considerations).
All in all its a ROMANTIC COMEDY but also at home in genre SUSPENSE, THRILLER and HORROR


FESTIVALS and AWARDS
7 Awards (New York City, Las Vegas, Toronto, Seoul, Hamburg, Steinfurt, Gustavsburg) and 46 Official Selections by
now (USA, Canada, UK, Germany, India, Russia, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, Greece, Romania, Cyprus)


MOVIE THEATERS and TV
Up to now
the short film was screened in 40 movie theaters (Germany, Austria, Switzerland, India, Mongolia),
from big chain cinema to little and cozy arthouse movie theaters, several of them
with the filmmaker and director himself beeing present, including Q&A.
And it is or will be broadcasted by 30 TV stations (Germany).

Comment from director


"evolution" on IMDb


    Film review by Richard D. Propes in "The Independent Critic":
Evolution (12 Mins., Narrative Short)
_{Starring: Elisabeth Muller, Georg Jungermann; Written and Directed by: Georg Jungermann;}
This solid German entry into the 2012 Heartland Film Festival centers around a woman named Lena
(Elisabeth Muller) who finds a message from her boyfriend (Georg Jungermann) that he will be arriving home
late. He informs her that there's a present for her in the wardrobe, but asks her to please wait until his return to open it.
Can she do it?
Nominated for Best Foreign Project at the Central Florida Film Festival, Evolution has been enjoying a
solid run on the film festival that began in September of last year at the Harlem International Film Festival and is a
delightful mixture of romance and comedy that works largely on the strength of the chemistry between Muller and Jungermann.

  Film review by William Palmer (United States):
Evolution (12 Mins., Narrative Short)
In reviewing Melville's masterwork "Le Samourai," the late film critic Roger Ebert wrote that "action is the enemy of suspense."
Based on a simple yet effective premise, "Evolution" proves his point, carefully blending and exploiting film genres
and their cliches to marvelous effect. This polished, self assured debut from filmmaker Georg Jungermann
will leave other filmmakers asking themselves "Gee, why didn't I think of that?"
 
--> My first citation in a major German Newspaper - they asked my opinion as filmmaker <--
(its about Lee Hirschs and Harvey Weinsteins documentary "Bully" and its controversial discussion in the US)
