[Credits] [Tickets & Termine] [Trailer]

Rose is very clo­se to her older brot­her Sam. When he is accu­sed of rape, Rose is asked to testi­fy against him as part of the inves­ti­ga­ti­on. This tests both their rela­ti­onship and Rose’s moral inte­gri­ty.
In Schwesterherz, direc­tor Sarah Miro Fischer explo­res an inti­ma­te sibling rela­ti­onship and how it is that the clo­ser we are to ano­ther per­son, the har­der it might be to see them cle­ar­ly. What kind of events have the power to des­troy even the clo­sest of bonds? When working on her film with the actors, she pla­ced par­ti­cu­lar empha­sis on phy­si­cal expres­si­on in order to be able to tell sto­ries bey­ond the spo­ken word.

A Belarusian model dre­a­ming of a care­er in China finds hers­elf drawn to a mys­te­rious loner who works the night shift at a mor­gue.

A film by Ildikó Enyedi. In German and English with German subtitles.

[Credits] [Tickets & Termine] [Trailer]

In the heart of a bota­ni­cal gar­den in a medieval uni­ver­si­ty town in Germany stands a maje­s­tic gink­go tree. This silent wit­ness has obser­ved over a cen­tu­ry the quiet rhyth­ms of trans­for­ma­ti­on across three human lives.
2020, a neu­ro­sci­en­tist from Hong Kong, explo­ring the mind of babies, beg­ins an unex­pec­ted expe­ri­ment with the old tree.
1972, a young stu­dent is pro­found­ly chan­ged by the simp­le act of obser­ving and con­nec­ting with a gera­ni­um.
1908, the university’s first fema­le stu­dent dis­co­vers, through the lens of pho­to­gra­phy, sacred pat­terns of the uni­ver­se hid­den within the hum­blest of plants.
We fol­low their clum­sy, awk­ward attempts to con­nect — each one of them deep­ly roo­ted in their own pre­sent — as they are trans­for­med by the quiet, endu­ring, and mys­te­rious power of natu­re. The anci­ent gink­go tree brings us clo­ser to what it means to be human — to our lon­ging to belong.

A film by Jafar Panahi. In Farsi with German subtitles.

[Credits] [Tickets & Termine] [Trailer]

Vahid, who was once impri­so­ned and tor­tu­red by the Iranian aut­ho­ri­ties, meets a man he belie­ves to have been his most sadi­stic tor­tu­rer. He can’t be sure though, as he was blind­fold­ed during the inter­ro­ga­ti­ons. Intent on vio­lent reven­ge but afraid of hur­ting an inno­cent per­son, he kid­naps the man and asks ano­ther for­mer inma­te to cor­rob­ora­te his sus­pi­ci­on. Neither abso­lut­e­ly con­fi­dent, they deci­de to track down other sur­vi­vors. The group keeps gro­wing as they dri­ve around in Vahid’s van with their pri­soner in tow, despera­te­ly pur­suing a cer­tain­ty that remains just bey­ond reach. A taut thril­ler nuan­ced by an under­cur­rent of absur­dist far­ce, YEK TASADOF‑E SADEH, win­ner of this year’s Palme d’Or, is Jafar Panahi’s most out­spo­ken and expli­cit­ly poli­ti­cal film to date. That it was made after he was hims­elf released from Tehran’s noto­rious Evin Prison gives the sto­ry an obvious auto­bio­gra­phi­cal dimen­si­on. Yet its moral impli­ca­ti­ons extend bey­ond the per­so­nal to encom­pass all of Iranian socie­ty in the wake of the Woman, Life, Freedom pro­tests. Now that new free­doms have been achie­ved, ope­ning an unpre­ce­den­ted win­dow of oppor­tu­ni­ty, the film sets the desi­re for ven­ge­an­ce against the impe­ra­ti­ve to keep pushing for­ward.
