Reiko`s Time

Reiko Pieper takes care of many things, but first and foremost he takes care of a community theatre group in a small picturesque village in Germany. The film introduces us to his daily life and shows in a subtle and observant way how he and his theatre group "Senfkorn" prepare the new play for the summer programme of their cultural garden.

Director Statement

I'm fascinated by people's commitment to art and community, and meeting Reiko Pieper was an inspiring moment for me. His humble and tenacious approach to life and art reflects the quiet strength found in small communities. This project is a testament to how art, no matter the scale, brings people together and enriches their lives.
