Logline:
Two twenty-something girls face a daydreaming self-discovery journey between carefree days and the sorrow of a world of misconceptions in a summer go-away trip.
Synopsis:
Emma and Lola are in their early twenties and already know
one or two things about broken hearts and unbearable expectations. During a summer holiday, what it's a simple
escape to the tropical wilderness of the Everglades to forgive
and forget, turn into a self-discovery journey, fulfilled with carefree fantasies, childish games, and a quirky rebellion
against roles and rules.
Postcards From Last Summer is a hypertextual coming-of-age film essay, an evocative snapshot created upon reflexive notes, off-screen narration, and pop-ish tableaux vivants.
The film was independently produced, shot on 16mm, on location in the Everglades National Park and Miami Beach.

Film Score:
The original film score was created by Berlin-based, Austrian composer, songwriter, and performer Ella Zwietnig –rep by Manners McDade and a member of the Alliance for Women Film Composers– and her partner Florian Zwietnig, a prolific composer, sound designer, producer, and past member of the German band Mediengruppe Telekommander.
Inspired by a colorful spectrum of influences varying from late '70s Suicide, Kraut Rock, Gabriel Yared, and Eric Serra, Ella and Florian created dreamy, ethereal, haunting, and noisy soundscapes with melodic nuances to enhance the evocative spirit of the film blending art-pop sensibilities and contemporary electronic music through the use of processed vocal, analog and electronic instruments, prepared piano, and the Oberheim Matrix 1000, mastered to analog tape.
