Beyond Pain is a short documentary—told with science-fiction flair—that deals with different aspects of pain. The film combines a documentary style with elements of a classic feature film. Xenia, Jan and John are our three main characters. Their stories criss-cross each other throughout the film. In the background, functioning almost as a mirror for an occasional reality check, is Berlin—ugly yet fascinating, as real life often is.
