Red Is For Revenge
“Red Is For Revenge” is an adaption of “Red Riding Hood”, a Brothers Grimm fairytale that I wrote for an assignment at Vancouver Film School. I chose this fairytale because I’ve always had a big love for fairytales, mythology, and legends. Maybe it’s because I grew up with brutal and crazy German tales? German (Fairy)Tales…

Comic: “The (God)Child”
Woo! Wooo! It’s Christmas time! I’m so excited this year! (Just in case you couldn’t tell … :D) The reason for my newly awaken Christmas spirit isn’t just because I transformed from the Grinch to a true Christmas fangirl, but also – thanks to COVID-19 – that I don’t need to see my weird, sexist,…

Only “criminal” people or men would be tattooed. If a woman had one, she’d be a rebel, someone who…

4 Fictional German Characters that aren‘t Nazis or based on fairytales
Growing up in Germany I loved watching American television and films. Especially animated shows and action movies. But that also meant for me that I grew up with a lot of German characters that are the bad guys. Often German characters were/are Nazis.
