Seven film students, one bus route, infinite German chaos. Aloha, Munich.
Produced and directed by seven Munich Film School students, Honolulu takes place not in Hawaii, but inside of a rural town just outside of Munich, Germany. Several vignettes, lasting approximately 10 to 15 minutes each, are connected by one of the town’s public bus routes, outside of which two men booze the night away while waiting for the bus to make its rounds.
Direction
Seven distinct voices somehow cohesive — like a film school fever dream that actually works.
Writing
The boozy bus stop framing device is weirdly brilliant narrative glue.
