WIE SCHMECKT DIE WASSERMELONE

Emigrant Jin‘s journey home is derailed by a cancelled flight and increasing loneliness, while an unexpected connection with a mysterious wolf-dog takes him into a surreal experience.

WHAT DOES WATERMELON TASTE LIKE is the third short film Shanghai-born Yao has made while studying Directing at the University of Television and Film Munich after WHITE ISLAND and HOW COAL SMELLS.

The film was produced by fellow HFF student Seren Sahin, who is currently in his final year of studies at the Production and Media Business department. His production of Muschirf Shekh Zeyn’s KILLING BAGHEERA was one of the films in German Films’ Next Generation selection for 2023.
