»#ALPENVANSINN« is a culture clash comedy in the D-A-C-H border triangle, in which the villagers, who maintain their mass tourism structures with low-wage workers from the Eastern Bloc are infested by a new plague: Vanlife-influencer tourists looking for "the real thing" hidden in the nature reserves with their buses. Not only do they leave behind tire tracks and their emergency excrement in spade holes, they also don't want to have much to do with the traditional villages, let alone leave their money there.

In order to combat the new, unwanted tourist species, the unthinkable happens - the neighboring villages in D-A-CH, which have been enemies for generations, have to bury the hatchet and join forces.

While they go into battle together against the Vanlifers, a tender Romeo-and-Juliet love story develops between the Bavarian forester's son HIAS (26) and the biologist KATHI (24) from the neighboring Austrian village, who has returned with her own VW bus after years of absence.

I created this mood board for producers Hannah Schweier & Marc van den Bosch-Mprah for their newly founded production company HappyDrama GmbH for acquiring national talent and distributors. Since there is no real photography available the (preliminary) key visual was created with AI and edited in Photoshop. They style of the key visual should evoke the look of old vintage postcards or postings in a showcase in a tourist office which have faded in the sun.
