    A film by Aslı Özarslan. In German and Turkish with German and English subtitles.

    [Credits] [Tickets & Termine] [Trailer]

    Hazal’s grea­test wish is to have a life. In spi­te of many appli­ca­ti­ons, she isn’t invi­ted to a sin­gle job inter­view. Instead, she is stuck in a Job Centre trai­ning pro­gram that fails to open up any new oppor­tu­ni­ties for her. But on her 18th bir­th­day, Hazal feels powerful. It is like the old days when she and her fri­ends belie­ved they could achie­ve any­thing as long as they stuck tog­e­ther. It’s only when they’re queu­e­ing to get into a hip club that Hazal feels they don’t belong the­re. And she’s right. The boun­cer refu­ses to let them in. On their way home, they’re ver­bal­ly abu­sed by an arro­gant stu­dent. The situa­ti­on escala­tes, Hazal’s frus­tra­ti­on about all the rejec­tions erupts into a fatal act. Hazal flees head­long to Istanbul, a stran­ge city in a coun­try unknown to her. There, she has to sur­vi­ve on her own, no mat­ter what the cost.
    Ellbogen tells the sto­ry of a young woman who is pushed out of socie­ty and has to reset the cour­se of her life. We want to run through the night with her; we want to know what hap­pens next – for her, and for us all.

  • Crossing – Auf der Suche nach Tekla

    Crossing – Auf der Suche nach Tekla

    A film by Levan Akin. In Georgian, Turkish and English with German subtitles.

    [Credits] [Tickets & Termine] [Trailer]

    Lia, a reti­red tea­cher, has made a pro­mi­se to find out what hap­pen­ed to her long-lost nie­ce, Tekla. When Lia lear­ns from a neigh­bour, Achi, that Tekla might have left their Georgian home­land and be living in Turkey, Lia and Achi set off tog­e­ther to find her. Arriving in Istanbul, they dis­co­ver a beau­tiful city full of con­nec­tions and pos­si­bi­li­ties. But sear­ching for someone who never inten­ded to be found is har­der than they expec­ted – until they meet Evrim, a lawy­er fight­ing for trans rights. As Lia and Achi wea­ve their way through the city’s back­streets, Tekla starts to feel clo­ser than ever.
    Levan Akin’s fourth fea­ture film is fil­led with an impres­si­ve emo­tio­nal imme­dia­cy. Two initi­al­ly hesi­tant stran­gers over­co­me not only ideo­lo­gi­cal but also inter­nal boun­da­ries on their mis­si­on and join forces. The topo­gra­phy of the city plays just as important a role in this ode to huma­ni­ty as the array of cha­rac­ters that live within it.

    Gagarin – Einmal schwerelos und zurück

    A film by Fanny Liatard and Jérémy Trouilh. In French with German subtitles.

    [Credits] [https://booking.cinetixx.de/frontend/#/movie/2278359999/2389522445] [Trailer]

    Gagarin erzählt die Geschichte von Youri (Alseni Bathily), der guten Seele einer Nachbarschaft, der an der Idee und an den Erinnerungen eines soli­da­ri­schen Zusammenlebens fest­hält, bis es nicht mehr geht.
    Youri ist der selbst­er­nann­te Hausmeister einer 60er Jahre Siedlung in einer Vorstadt von Paris namens Gagarin. Obwohl er und sei­ne Freunde sich größ­te Mühe geben, kön­nen sie nicht ver­hin­dern, dass die Stadt beschließt, dass die Siedlung abge­ris­sen wer­den soll.
    Nach und nach zie­hen alle weg, nur Youri hat für sich beschlos­sen zu blei­ben. Erst mal fin­det Youri neue Freunde. Das Roma Mädchen Diana (Lyna Khoudri, The French Dispatch) ist fas­zi­niert von sei­nem Einsiedlertum und der Dealer Dali (Finnegan Oldfield, Corsage) lebt auch noch irgend­wo im Gebäudekomplex. Dann aber wird die ille­ga­le Siedlung von Dianas Familie von der Stadt auf­ge­löst. Und auch Dali ver­schwin­det nach eine gewalt­tä­ti­gen Auseinandersetzung mit den Bauarbeitern, die Gagarin ver­sie­geln und für die Sprengung vor­be­rei­ten. Als letz­ter Bewohner lebt Youri in der Siedlung wie in einem Raumschiff. Youri weiß, dass er sich in eine Sackgasse manö­vriert hat, und dass sei­ne Umgebung immer lebens­feind­li­cher wird. Aber Youri ist stur, er will sei­ne Mission, wie einen Parabelflug been­den und so arbei­tet er an einem Countdown, an des­sen Ende die Hochhaussiedlung Gagarin für ihn um Hilfe rufen soll. Leider zählt wäh­rend­des­sen noch ein ande­rer Countdown von 10 bis 0.
