He was both the sound designer and composer for <em class="tit2">Ancestral Visions of the Future</em> (<em class="mark_section">Berlinale Special</em>).<br/>Barbara Drazkov, composer and pianist primarily for new music and prepared piano, created the score for the short animated film <em class="tit2">Autokar </em>(<em class="mark_section">Generation</em>). Nils Kacirek has written film music for countless films, TV productions and series, including the documentary <em class="tit2">Circusboy</em>, which is premiering in <em class="mark_section">Generation</em>. Dascha Dauenhauer’s work has already featured in five productions presented at the Berlinale and is returning this year with two more films: <em class="tit2">Islands </em>and <em class="tit2">No Beast. So Fierce.</em> (both <em class="mark_section">Berlinale Special</em>); she is also a member of the International Jury for the 2025 <em class="mark_section">Berlinale Shorts</em>.
