Filmmaking produces more than just entertaining, exciting and profound cultural products. The economic impacts, such as value creation, location promotion and the integration of the creative industries, are also interesting and important aspects.

25-year-old Desmond Hudson from Steinen managed the demanding filming as production manager. As a young filmmaker and local, he possesses the necessary knowledge and network, enabling him to contribute effectively while gaining valuable new experience.
