"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are" (Anaïs Nin)

The story


The movie shows a day in the life of Hana and Bernhard. Hana is living life to the full, Bernhard is new in town and everything is open to him. In the morning, a piano is delivered, which sets the story in motion. And suddenly the question arises: what happens when structured everyday life meets chaos and when unconstrained, artistic drive meets obsessive perfection?

“But you don't play well”. A short film about two individuals - one autistic, one neurotypical. Both are united by their love of music and yet the piano stands between them.

The short film “Klavír” tells the story of a day in the life of Hana, who has Asperger's autism, and how it is disrupted by Bernhard. The interactive screening format gives the audience the opportunity to view the story from a different perspective and hear it told in a slightly different way each time they watch it. Because there is not “one right” perception, but always as many as there are viewers.

The comedy arose from the desire to take a differentiated look at autism as a perceptual disorder and sees itself as a contribution to ongoing awareness-raising and education on the subject.

Hana about her diagnosis


Hana talks about her world as an autistic person. The titles in the video are each an official DSM-V diagnostic criterion. Spoken by Sonja Zobel (leading actress of the film “Klavír”)

“This movie was a very big challenge for me. I saw how much work still needs to be done in accepting autism in everyday life. Autistic people are actually completely normal people who are only marginalized by our social environment.” Sonja Zobel Sonja Zobel
