- "Schere, Stein, Papier" (engl. "Scissors, Paper, Stone" the children's game) is a short movie about the issue of feeling strange to something.

"Feeling strange" is a definite personal expression. There existence nothing which is "strange". Something which is different to the ordinary, may seem strange to people, but just as long as it is unknown. At the same time the ordinary may seem strange to the extraordinary. Suddenly it's not strange anymore. Further more the movie is intended to show that love bears the power to defeat all the fears, everything that's unknown and different brings about.
