Curiosità

13 Semester is a 2009 German comedy film. The subtitle (caption) „Der frühe Vogel kann mich mal” indicates that some students are not happy about the ‘early bird’. 13 semesters is longer than the standard period of study.

Production

In writing the film, co-author Oliver Ziegenbalg drew on his own experiences. He studied mathematical economics and even achieved a diploma in his field of study. According to the director, there are more connections to real life that result from memories of his own life as a student. Frieder Wittich got to know the band Bonaparte at a small concert in Berlin and spontaneously invited them to take part in the shooting of 13 Semester.

The shooting for 13 Semester took place in the city of Darmstadt from March 31 to May 13, 2008. Darmstadt, the fourth-biggest city in the state of Hessen, was picked from a shortlist including university cities like Münster, Karlsruhe and Konstanz.
