Lisa + Lotta = LiseLotte
— simple math, a rare thing in films, your welcome
good to see you here!
we are Lisa Purtscher and Lotta Schmelzer and we are LiseLotte Films. We started our production company in October 2023 and are currently located in Ludwigsburg, our favourite little film school town. We partnered up for several shortfilms in the past and now founded our own company to create films that make you rethink our modern society and tell stories from a new perspective. We are always up for new people, ideas and creativity in fictional feature films and series.
our first feature film BABYSTAR, a co-production with ZDF – Das kleine Fernsehspiel, premiered in 2025 at the 50th Toronto International Film Festival and will be released in German cinemas in April 2026. We are currently working on a documentary film in collaboration with SWR and NDR, as well as the feature film HYPERBABY by Romina Küper and our first series for RTL+, directed by Bernhard Strobel, titled GOOD LORD.

Produktionsassistenz
Thiess grew up in a german-dutch household, but mainly in a Berlin-Kreuzberg household. He likes strawberries, looking closely (politically, personally and out of curiosity), hates wood-grain wallpaper and loves stories in any shape or form—especially creating them, contributing to them and coming together through them.
That’s why he put together a street-photography exhibition about being on the move, did the literary accompaniment for the play „ICH STEHE STILL und rühre mich“ (Theatre of Remembrance), is constantly writing, including a novel, works in the film world, and has directed, written, and produced four short films.
Nice things like that.
