Presentation of "The Lifeblood"
fantasy film-series
adapted from Gustav Meyrink’s novel „Das Haus des Alchimisten" (“The House of the Alchemist”)

"The Lifeblood" is based on a collaboration between more than 20 different artists, amongst others: Stefani Rota, Mattia Pilosio, Claudio Della Negra.

Synopsis:
In a dystopian future nearly nothing can survive in the earth’s atmosphere. Only the living city and its inhabitants –a new form of human life, stay. KEMAL, the Great Architect, succeeds to design everything to ultimate perfection. He himself then turns into the city, is venerated and respected. Nothing escapes his control. However the perfection is unnatural and a long-hidden mistake in the city’s underground troubles the perfect plan.
