In a dystopian world where touch is forbidden, Matta and Matto offer refuge to the lonely at the Hotel Vaip. In the deceptive labyrinth of mind-bending rooms at their transient hotel, deepest desires are fulfilled and surpassed, but this comes at a price.
Bianca Caderas, Kerstin Zemp
Bianca Caderas (1990) from Basel and Kerstin Zemp (1993) from Lucerne, successfully completed their Bachelor in 2D Animation at the Lucerne School of Art and Design in 2017 with their short film Living Like Heta (co-directed with Isabella Luu). Their graduation film was shown at numerous animation festivals around the world, including Premiers Plans in 2018. Both moved abroad for several years after graduating: Bianca to Hamburg for her film studies and Kerstin worked in Ireland as a freelance illustrator and animator. In 2020, Bianca completed her writer-director's film Jeroboam, which was made in collaboration with Kerstin. Matta and Matto is the second short film they have directed together.
