Director Statement

With our film Last Exit Oberhausen, we show the sunny and shady sides of structural change in the Ruhr area. The comedy breaks with the ideal Ruhrpott romance, but still doesn't forget the impregnable miners' fortresses and unmistakable Ruhrpott characters.

Last exit Oberhausen is therefore a story about identities:
What makes us special? What defines the place where we live?
With the help of our protagonists, we negotiate human values ​​such as friendship, dignity and existential fears. The town of Oberhausen is a mirror for all these challenges. For Oberhausen, too, the foundations of identity have changed in recent years: industrial sites have become places of culture, and huge shopping centers are endangering the pedestrian zones. But what is Oberhausen apart from the Centro, Gasometer and the local Fottball club "RWO"?

We talk about people who are looking for their place in today. Winner and Loser! In doing so, we sometimes negotiate true events from our world as actors: During the corona pandemic, colleagues were suddenly forced to offer increasingly explicit content on various platforms. What role does social media play here? Or are we not playing along?
All characters fight with their own personal challenges - and have to jump over their own shadow again and again.
