The Other Side

The Other Side

This challenging role was a huge task for Paul Eilert! Besides the coach, a child psychologist was on set, who held preliminary talks with Paul and is still there to support him afterwards in processing the experience.Jonas copes with his mother Nicole''s move with varying success. The accompanying change of school is difficult. He is a loner who suffers from having no friends and escapes into a fantasy world with imaginary friends who, on "The Other Side", actually exist. He can see ghosts and at times seems not of this world. A great deal was asked of the young actor.Here we show you a photo from the attic. This is where the boy sits in his cosy nook of blankets, cushions and clothes, playing with his action figures and Lisa, his new friend. She is a ghost girl who lived in this house long ago and lost her life on a dare. They romp and play a lot, and it gets really loud. It is Jonas'' perfect little world, in which he is happily together with his new friend Lisa.Director: Florian Andersfilmpool/Channel TLC
