Filmmaker Comments:
Security is an absolutely no-budget film production, shoot on tree days in february 06 in Hamburg, Germany. All cast and crew worked for free and the production was only possible because of the huge support we got from local companies. We are very happy to have well-known actor Peter Kurth playing the leading role.
