Girl

A film by Lukas Dhont. In French and Flemish with German subtitles.

[Credits] [Termine] [Trailer]

While Lara alre­a­dy iden­ti­fies as a girl, her world is under­go­ing signi­fi­cant and much desi­red trans­for­ma­ti­on. She has just moved with her father and bel­oved kid brot­her to a new city whe­re she has been pro­vi­sio­nal­ly accept­ed into a pres­ti­gious dance school and she will soon be old enough to start hor­mo­ne repla­ce­ment the­ra­py. Lara’s aspi­ra­ti­on to femin­in­i­ty is so gre­at that she has cho­sen the most extre­me phy­si­cal form of its expres­si­on. But here, dance is not a release. Held cap­ti­ve by her body, she tapes her geni­tals and hides the bloo­di­ed feet which have not grown up en poin­te like the other girls. While her father offers her not­hing but sup­port, she is all teenage uncer­tain­ty and impa­ti­ence and her inte­ri­or world moves clo­ser to self-des­truc­tion even as her outer beau­ty blooms.

GIRL | TRAILER (OmdU)

 

Utøya 22. Juli

A film by Erik Poppe. In Norwegian with German subtitles.

[Credits] [Termine] [Trailer]

On 22 July 2011 five hundred young peo­p­le atten­ding a sum­mer camp on the island of Utøya were atta­cked by a hea­vi­ly armed right-wing extre­mist. The mur­de­rous attack clai­med the lives of 69 vic­tims. It was a trau­ma that rocked Norway to the core, and still does to this day. Director Erik Poppe has dared to attempt to turn the events of that sum­mer into a film. His dra­ma opens with docu­men­ta­ry foo­ta­ge of Oslo whe­re, short­ly before­hand, the same atta­cker had explo­ded a car bomb kil­ling eight peo­p­le; the sce­ne then shifts to the island. The came­ra fol­lows 19-year-old Kaja who is spen­ding a few days of the holi­day here with her young sis­ter Emilie. The two are quar­rel­ling becau­se Emilie is in no mood for the camp and has abso­lut­e­ly no desi­re to go to the bar­be­cue. And so Kaja ends up going alo­ne. Suddenly, the first gunshot is heard.
This first shot marks the begin­ning of a breathl­ess 72-minu­te-long recon­s­truc­tion of events, film­ed in a sin­gle take, as seen through the eyes of the vic­tims. Kaja’s despe­ra­te search for Emilie. The fear in the eyes of the young peo­p­le. Their escape into the forest. Their despe­ra­te hope of res­cue. And the unknown ass­as­sin, get­ting clo­ser and closer.

Waldheims Walzer

A film by Ruth Beckermann. In German

[Credits] [Termine] [Trailer]

A lot of time has pas­sed sin­ce the scan­dal sur­roun­ding the Nazi past of for­mer UN Secretary General Kurt Waldheim made head­lines world­wi­de, not least becau­se he denied it. It all star­ted during the 1986 Austrian pre­si­den­ti­al cam­paign, when Waldheim was sup­po­sed to gain vic­to­ry and thus reach the pin­na­cle of his sto­ry­book post-war poli­ti­cal care­er. Based on smart­ly cho­sen inter­na­tio­nal TV archi­ve mate­ri­al, this docu­men­ta­ry essay recon­s­tructs how this hea­ted deba­te pro­gres­sed, all the way up to the second round of voting in June 1986. The posi­ti­ons of the various stake­hol­ders – excerp­ts from the press con­fe­ren­ces of the World Jewish Congress, deba­tes in the UN General Assembly, hea­rings in the US Congress as well as state­ments by the Austrian People’s Party and its can­di­da­te – are joi­n­ed by Ruth Beckermann’s sub­jec­ti­ve, ana­ly­ti­cal com­men­ta­ry in voice­over. She’s also the­re in the video foo­ta­ge she shot hers­elf, docu­ments of an oppo­si­tio­nal move­ment that show anti-Waldheim events and ver­bal dis­pu­tes with res­entful and anti-Semitic passers­by. Rabble-rou­sing, slan­der, media-bas­hing, and deny­ing facts – they all bro­ke new ground here. Yes, a lot of time has pas­sed, but it’s not over yet. (Berlinalestext)
