Beauty Queen

The idea for the film was pretty crazy. Sonja Welter wanted to play a schizophrenic woman who slowly goes crazy in her delusion of becoming a beauty queen. I was thrilled by her idea, expanded the script to include a serial killer and other crazy stuff! We had so much fun! For the first time, Sonja Welter appears with me as a co-producer and co-author, our collaboration was great, the film is something to be proud of!

Walter and Mary are a happy childless couple as it seems. They live in a nice neighbourhood with their lovely neighbours. But behind the suburbian idyll there is an enormous human abyss. Appearing modest and friendly, Walter turns out to be a sadistic seriel Killer, who likes to hunt young women in his spare time. His mentally disturbed wife gets lost in her delusion to become a "Beauty Queen". She would do anything to make her dream come true.
