Between then and now' is a documentary project about people and places from a vanishing world. This vanishing world is situated in the Bavarian Forest, which is characterized by its rural structure and which is undergoing massive shifts from a traditional to a modern society. A result of this change is the loss of an old life style, along with its values and traditions. Another result is a necessity of leaving those behind and starting something new. Thereby those places and people are left behind.
Therefore the title 'Between then and now' stands for the state of mind I am, the state of mine these people are in. Being not able to let go from the past but not let go from the future I am looking back at the time with a sad and a happy eye.
