Sisters July and September are very close, but very different: September is protective and distrustful; July, open and curious. An incident in school forces them to flee to an old holiday home with their mum, where a series of surreal events cause their bond to shift in ways July cannot comprehend.
Köln 75 tells the true story behind one of the best-selling jazz records of all time, Keith Jarrett’s “Köln Concert” from 1975. The event almost failed to happen – before a formidable German teenager, the 18-year-old Vera Brandes, pulls out all the stops and arranges the conditions for the creation of a masterpiece. Vera, who is still at school when she starts producing and promoting concerts in Cologne, puts everything on the line to stage this show. It looks like all the odds are against her, but Vera believes in the power of music and has never seen anyone play in the way that Keith Jarrett plays.

Artist Johan Grimonprez’s new film essay stems from detailed research about some of the machinations the Western colonial powers, such as his native Belgium or the US, came up with to undermine the African decolonization movement. It specifically reexamines the Democratic Republic of the Congo (then Zaire) and its struggle for independence in the context of the CIA’s history of arts patronage, telling how the US Foreign Intelligence agency sent Louis Armstrong as a jazz ambassador to distract from their involvement in the assassination of newly elected Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba. Nina Simone was sent on a similar tour of Nigeria by a CIA front organization, yet other jazz greats got involved less unwittingly. Dizzy Gillespie briefly ran for president in 1964 and promised that the White House would be renamed the Blues House, while Abbey Lincoln and Max Roach crashed the UN Security Council to protest Lumumba’s assassination. Both a historical pamphlet and a swinging musical composition, SOUNDTRACKTO A COUP D’ETAT unfolds like a record’s extensive sleeve notes, as the jazz sounds propel and carry along facts, figures and footnotes of major and minor histories with them at dizzying speed.

A few months after his release from Auschwitz and still in his striped jacket, Yechiel De-Nur sat down and started writing. After two weeks, he was reborn as Ka-Tzetnik, or “the man from the camps.” While the books that he wrote were translated into 32 languages and sold millions, the author himself hid behind the pseudonym. It wasn’t until the trial of Adolf Eichmann in 1961 that his true identity was revealed during his revelatory testimony where he described Auschwitz as “the other planet:” a place outside of human judgment. Years later, undergoing an experimental LSD treatment for trauma, he revisits his experience, imagining himself as an SS officer, and that changes everything. In this affecting documentary, the life of the mysterious and elusive author and his views on human behavior are examined in depth.
