MEETING AFTER THE FILM: Angelika Levi (director)

’ Flaming Ears’ is a pop sci-fi lesbian, fantasy feature set in the year 2700 in the fictive, burnt-out city of Asche. It follows the tangled lives of three women: Spy, a comic book artist; Volly, a performance artist and sexed-up pyromaniac; and Nun, an amoral alien with a predilection for reptiles. It´s a story of love and revenge and an anti-romantic plea for love in its many forms. It´s also a story laced with sex, violence and a pulsating soundtrack, a cyberdyke movie, stimulating both the body and the brain.” (Elke Schüttelkopf)

"A genderfluid, perverse, queer experimental film work ... [that] makes superimpositions of temporalities haptically palpable in its mingling of granular Super 8 film, collage, silhouette, miniature animation, and sound." (Paula Ziegler, nachdemfilm.de).

The digital restoration was done in 2020 by Kinothek Asta Nielsen e.V. as part of a project of Remake. Frankfurter Frauen Film Tage 2019.
