#18 ABSOLUTE GIGANTEN (D. Sebastian Schipper, 81 MIN. GER , 1999)

SYNOPSIS Hamburg, three friends, one last night together. For years they have been inseparable, the thoughtful Floyd (Frank Giering), the loud-mouthed and yet so vulnerable Ricco (Florian Lukas) and the good-natured Walter (Antoine Monot Jr.). Out of the blue, Floyd drops the bombshell: He has signed on to a cruiser and is leaving for Singapore the very next day. Only one night separates the three of them from an irrevocable farewell. A last night that should be great, something very special, big, unforgettable. So Floyd, Ricco and Walter wander through pubs, bars and clubs, chatting, dreaming and laughing, always on the lookout... for the last time together.  ABOUT Sebastian Schipper studied acting at the Otto Falckenberg Schule in Munich from 1992 to 1995. He debuted as director with ABSOLUTE GIGANTEN in 1999. The film was co-produced by Tom Tykwer, who has cast Schipper in several of his own films. His fourth film as director is VICTORIA, a one take film about a night in a Berlin nightclub gone wrong. It played at the 65th Berlin International Film Festival and won in six categories at the German Film Award 2015, including Best Film and Best Direction.
