Berlins Beste 2012: Anspruchvollstes Kino
Richtiges, pures Arthouse – für Mainstream-Mätzchen ist im Kreuzberger fsk am Oranienplatz kein Platz. Das Namenskürzel steht übrigens für Flugzeugsesselkino, die erste Bestuhlung stammte von ausgemusterten Lufthansa-Maschinen. Wer also echte Entdeckungen machen möchte, ist hier richtig, mit Filmen aus aller Welt, meist in der Originalfassung mit Untertiteln. Und die dürfen gerne mal elegisch oder sperrig sein, damit genug Raum für die Assoziationen des Zuschauers bleibt. (MS)
Die drei besten Berliner Kinos sind …?
Das FSK am Oranienplatz. Da gehe ich zu Fuß hin und schaue an, was gerade läuft. Das ist das Gegenteil von DVD. Ich treffe keine Kaufentscheidung, ich entdecke etwas. (…)
(Christian Petzold im Tagesspiegel Interview 2014)
War and Justice is the first and only true-life documentary about the International Criminal Court (ICC), thanks to unprecedented access to Ben Ferencz, Luis Moreno Ocampo (ICC’s first prosecutor), and Karim Khan (its current prosecutor). Film directors Marcus Vetter and Michele Gentile follow Ocampo around the world as he enlists the support of Academy Award-winning Angelina Jolie and as they join Ferencz in the uphill battle against wars in the Congo, Libya, Palestine, and Ukraine. In the course of the film, the complexities of international law are given a face, and the viewer understands why those who launch wars of aggression, the mother of all war crimes, can hardly be brought to justice while the world’s largest military powers — China, India, Russia, and the United States — remain unwilling to recognize the ICC’s jurisdiction.Sadly, just as the film is about to debut, Ferencz dies at the age of 103. But Ocampo and Khan fight on in his honor, more determined than ever to put an end to all wars of aggression. Because war begets revenge; justice does not.

Landshaft sketches the psychogeography of a geopolitically charged landscape and its inhabitants between extractivism, war and displacement. In the form of a journey in eastern Armenia, the film follows human and non-human actors as they make their way through the landscape, from Lake Sevan to the Sotk gold mine, occupied by Azerbaijan since the Karabakh War in 2020.

20 years ago, the love affair of Gracie Atherton-Yu (Julianne Moore) and her husband Joe (Charles Melton), 23 years her junior, was the talk of the nation. Today, the two actors are still married and their twins are about to graduate from high school. When Hollywood wants to make a film of her life, Elizabeth Berry (Natalie Portman) arrives to research her role as Gracie. But soon the family idyll threatens to fall apart: Joe has never really dealt with the scandal and the gossip – and the longer Elizabeth and Gracie study each other, the more the similarities and differences between the two women begin to blur.

Single mother Nadine leaves her home in Brandenburg at the age of 24 to take a job near Cologne in a factory serving the coal industry. There, she meets the impulsive Paul whose personality seems so multifaceted to her that she literally sees him in many different guises. After a long time, she finally feels like herself again. The two become a couple and a deep love develops between them. But, seven years later, her life is different. Nadine’s job is threatened by structural changes in the industry and her view of Paul has also altered. She now only sees him in his “own” external form which is becoming increasingly alien to her. Although Paul is a devoted family man, Nadine’s love for him begins to disintegrate. She decides to fight this feeling and to relocate the different layers of his being that she was once able to see. Set against the backdrop of one of the largest open-cast mining areas in Europe, Alle die Du bist is a social-realist and, at the same time, magical love film. Aenne Schwarz and Carlo Ljubek vividly embody the couple at the centre of this passionate, playful plea for the loving gaze.

Films about artists and the art life rarely grapple with the everyday business of what artists do – or, in their procrastination, don’t do. That’s why Kelly Reichardt’s SHOWINGUP is such a revelation – and, as a wry departure in this writer-director’s career, such an outright pleasure. Reichardt’s films have often been touched with humour, but here she has made an out-and-out comedy – although characteristically, a philosophical, laidback, melancholic one. It’s set in Portland, Oregon – an enduring bastion of US counterculture – where struggling sculptor Lizzy (Michelle Williams) is planning her own show. Committed though she is, she is easily distracted by life’s inconveniences: her troubled brother (John Magaro); her cranky father (Judd Hirsch) and his freeloading house guests (a delicious comic turn by Amanda Plummer and Matt Malloy); an egotistical, negligent landlady and fellow artist (Hong Chau); and a pigeon which enters Lizzy’s life at the worst possible moment. As taciturn, tight-wound Lizzy, Reichardt regular Williams shows a whole new deadpan comic side to her talent, as the director’s focus on the ordinary and the uneventful opens up a rich vein of comic nuance and even, at times, joyous farce.

Songea, Tanzania. John Mbano is on a mission to find the human remains of his great-grandfather, Songea Mbano, who was executed by the German colonial army. The family’s mourning has been passed down through the generations at Songea’s grave in which his head never found a resting place. Instead, it was shipped to Germany for racist research. John and his wife Cesilia embark on a life-changing journey. Buoyed by their resilience as they research, they finally decide to travel to Berlin to find the remains of John’s ancestor. There, they encounter activists whose voices are fighting Germany’s culture of denial. Along with them, the Mbanos confront those in power with their need to bring their ancestor home. What follows is a rollercoaster ride of new hopes and familiar disappointments. Even the historic visit of the German Federal President to John’s hometown fails to bring the beloved ancestor back home. The family’s search continues. Das leere Grab offers a personal perspective: behind the global debate about the return of ancestral remains, we find real people. People violated by a colonial past and its aftermath to this day. Their struggle paves a way to a future disentangled from a painful past.

Claudia Andujar’s life has been shaped by numerous dramatic events. From her escape from the Holocaust to her work in Brazil, where she found her life’s mission: the protection of the Yanomami people in the Amazon region. In her documentary „The Vision of Claudia Andujar”, German Film Award winner Heidi Specogna unfolds a multi-faceted portrait of the renowned artist. Following in the footsteps of her political and poetic photographs, we travel to the highly endangered rainforest region – and discover Andujar’s legacy.
The moving documentary „The Vision of Claudia Andujar” covers the life and work of renowned photographer, humanist and activist Claudia Andujar. Since the 1950s, she has been passionately committed to the rights and protection of the indigenous Amazonian peoples. With award-winning photographs and a lifelong commitment, she fights against the brutal actions of gold diggers, militias, timber companies, cattle ranchers and their exploitation. Heidi Specogna’s film delves into Andujar’s life story, which is also shaped by her flight from the Holocaust and finally led her to her new home in Brazil. The film team visits the Amazon region, which is now more threatened than ever, and the Yanomami people living there, to whose protection Claudia Andujar has dedicated her life. There we meet a young generation of indigenous people who are informing the public about the acute threat to their habitat with films they have made themselves: Their documentaries report on the devastating effects of slash-and-burn agriculture, looting and environmental destruction in the Amazon region – and at the same time document the rich traditions and unique habitat of their people.
»The open, undisguised gaze of the people in the camera touched me and aroused my curiosity about Claudia Andujar.« Heidi Specogna
