Introduction of the screening event: „The history of the combat against the pandemic should not be tainted by lies and misleading information; it should be recorded with the CORRECTCOLLECTIVEMEMORY of all mankind. ” Said Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Hua Chun-Ying. „抗疫叙事不能被谎言误导玷污,而应留下正确的人类集体记忆。„中国外交部发言人 华春莹。 „In the great flood of the times, personal memory is often regarded as the superfluous foam, waves and clamor of the times, and will be weeded out, thrown away or flung aside by the times; it will be rendered as silent and speechless as if it had never existed, and thus the great oblivion arrives at the passing of an age of running wheels and water. Flesh and blood with a soul are gone. All is well and quiet, and the small and true fulcrum that could pry the earth is gone. Thus, history becomes a legend, a forgetfulness and an imagination without any basis. ” Said Yan Lian-Ke. „在巨大的时代洪流中,个人记忆往往被视为是时代多余的泡沫、浪花和喧嚣,会被时 代剔除、扔掉或甩到一边去;会让它无声、无言如同从未存在过,从而在一个⻋轮流 水的时代过去时,巨大的遗忘到来了。有灵魂的血肉没有了。一切都安泰静好了,能 够撬动地球那个小而有小的真实支点不在了。如此着,历史就成了无依无据的传说、 遗忘和想像。„阎连科。 In this Chinese Independent Short Film Screening, we hope that these precious personal memories can be preserved, even though personal memories can’t make a difference in the world, they can make us have a true heart. 在这次中国独立短片放映会上,我们希望可以让这些宝贵的个人记忆得以保留,即便 个人记忆改变不了世界,但它可以让我们拥有真实的内心。

„Reas” (2024, 90 Min.) am 26.1.2025, 15.00 Uhr, with English subtitles. [Tickets]
Filmscreening „Reas” + panel talk in cooperation with Spinnboden Lesbian archive
After the film there will be a panel discussion about the film with Lola Arias.
„Reas” is an extraordinary documentary and musical by Lola Arias set in a women’s prison in Argentina. Yoseli has a tattoo of the Eiffel Tower on her back and has always wanted to travel to Europe, but she was arrested at the airport for drug trafficking. Nacho is a transman who was arrested for swindling and started a rock band in jail. Gentle or rough, blonde or shaved, cis or trans, long-term inmates or newly admitted: in this hybrid musical, they all re-enact their lives in a Buenos Aires prison.
„Reas” is a collective work that reinvents the musical genre: the performers dance and sing about their past in prison, relive their life as fiction, and invent, through fantasy and imagination, a possible future for themselves.
In the heart of the Nepalese Himalayas, the spirited Pema embraces a polyandrous marriage with Tashi and his two younger brothers. They initially lead a harmonious life, but when Tashi fails to return from a trading trip to Lhasa, the legitimacy of Pema’s unborn child is questioned by her community. Determined to prove her love and purity, she embarks on a quest to find Tashi. Accompanied by her brother-in-law, her now de facto spouse Karma, she goes into the wilderness. Karma is a monk. After initially resisting giving up his monastic life, he gradually comes to appreciate the simple existence of a secular life. However, urgent duties call him back to the monastery and Pema is left alone. As she navigates the harsh Himalayan terrain, her quest transcends the search for her missing husband. Pema becomes increasingly immersed in a spiritual search for meaning in which every step brings her closer to self-discovery and liberation.

ELEMENTOFCRIME in ‚Wenn es dunkel und kalt wird in Berlin‘ | TRAILER – Jetzt für zuhause
Basel Adra, a young Palestinian activist from Masafer Yatta on the West Bank, has been fighting the mass expulsion of his community by Israel’s occupation since childhood. He documents the slow-motion eradication of the villages in his home region where soldiers deployed by the Israeli government are gradually demolishing houses and driving out their residents. At some point, he meets Yuval, an Israeli journalist, who supports him in his efforts. An unlikely alliance develops. But the relationship between the two is strained by the enormous inequality between them: Basel lives under military occupation while Yuval lives freely and without restrictions. This film by a Palestinian-Israeli collective of four young activists has been made as an act of creative resistance on the path to greater justice.
Following in the footsteps of the Hamburg film director Hans Schomburgk who travelled through the German colony of Togo from Lomé to the north with his companion and actress Meg Gehrts in 1913, Jürgen Ellinghaus screens the footage shot then at its locations in modern-day Togo. Schomburgk’s affirmative images show slave labour, humiliation and the arrogance of the colonial power. The material is contrasted by Gehrts’ romanticising diary entries and other colonial reports which often testify to a horrifying coldness.
The screenings of this material, which has never been shown in Togo before, prompt the audiences to reflect on tradition, stereotypes, the “white gaze.” In the villages, the colonial images conjure up memories of handed down stories. In the metropolis of Lomé, young film enthusiasts deplore that these images were kept from them until today and discuss in which contexts they should be screened. But “Togoland Projections” not only shows how much these painful documents and texts are needed in contemporary Togo, because they are part of the country’s history. The film also demonstrates that they are needed in Germany so we can take responsibility for our suppressed history and face our own racism – past and present. Christoph Terhechte
