Since then, Matthias has directed numerous Shorts, Moodfilms, Musikvideos and Commercials - including his award-winning thesis short "Jenseits der Linie" (engl. title: "Beyond the line"), that premiered within the shocking shorts section at the Munich International Film Festival 2011, was elected "Short of the Month" in November 2010 by the FBW (an official German institute for valuating film on cultural importance) and was shown on many national and international Film Festivals. In 2015 he gave his feature film debut with "Nirgendwo".
