Chris the Swiss © DSCHOINT VENTSCHR AG

Director: Anja Kofmel


Anja Kofmel already admired her cousin Chris as a little girl. His mysterious death in the midst of the wars in Yugoslavia in 1992 still keeps her occupied. Especially as the young Swiss journalist wore the uniform of an international mercenary group at the time of his death. What happened? As an adult, Anja decides to follow his story. She tries to understand what Chris' actual involvement in this conflict was and takes us on a quest to Croatia. She tells of her journey in a fine mix of documentary and animated film. Meanwhile the film already won several awards. text©DSCHOINT VENTSCHR FILMPRODUKTION AG

Collage of Sound Effects & Music

Composer: Marcel Vaid
Foley artist: Heikki Kossi
Sound Design & Mix: Markus Krohn

The composer, the foley artist, the director and I had to find the right balances in the soundscape, the right texture of individual sounds and a haptic impression for the insects that came close to Anja’s feeling regarding e.g. the swarm. 
The different aesthetics in the animated parts and the classical documentary parts asked for an individual style of sounds for these parts throughout the film. Format: Dolby Atmos ®
