Write a short summary of what happens in the film
Four metalheads in their element. The music at its maximum and headbanging until the neck hurts - or in our case, the head. Because in the middle of the best part of the song the heads of driver and co-driver bang together - double knockout. Slowly the passengers on the back seat realize that nobody is driving the car anymore. But Volkswagen’s Emergency Assist takes over and brings their Golf to a safe stop.
So the friends can avoid a disaster and a brief time later - and for the sake of general safety - they are delighted with a soft pop tune.
Tell the jury about the casting process.
Tattoos, patches and, of course, lots of long hair - authentically casted metal characters were necessary to stage the film "Metalheads" in a credible way. With a lot of attention to detail in the choice of clothes and styling, we didn’t create the perfect advertising world, but four real metal fans in action, who had no problem to grimace and risk a proper headache. This way the film touches even the hardest rock fans' hearts - because after all, it's also about their safety.
