Ángela, a deaf woman, and Héctor, her hea­ring part­ner, are expec­ting a child. They are exci­ted about the pregnan­cy, alt­hough they do not yet know whe­ther the baby will be deaf or hea­ring. Despite both clai­ming they can hand­le wha­te­ver comes, their under­ly­ing con­cerns are evi­dent. After a com­pli­ca­ted and emo­tio­nal­ly inten­se labour, Ángela gives birth to their daugh­ter, but the pair will have to wait a cou­ple of months to learn if the baby is hea­ring or not. During this time, Héctor strug­gles to ful­ly grasp the chal­lenges Ángela is facing, while she must come to terms with rai­sing a daugh­ter who may not share her expe­ri­ence of the world. This jour­ney forces both of them to ques­ti­on their roles as part­ners and par­ents, as Ángela grapp­les with her iden­ti­ty in a socie­ty that does not ful­ly accept or under­stand her.

Franz K.

A film by Agnieszka Holland. Starts October 23th at the fsk. In German and Czech with German subtitles.

[Credits] [Tickets & Termine] [Trailer]

There are seve­ral films about Kafka and adapt­a­ti­ons of his works, moun­ta­ins of Kafka bio­gra­phies and other secon­da­ry lite­ra­tu­re, humo­rous­ly illus­tra­ted in ‘Franz K.’ during one of the excur­si­ons into the bizar­re pre­sent. Agnieszka Holland and aut­hor Marek Epstein have cho­sen a very lively approach for their film ver­si­on, which appears like a coll­ec­tion of short sto­ries. The film repea­ted­ly jumps through time, show­ing excerp­ts and frag­ments of what is known about the life of the high­ly sen­si­ti­ve aut­hor. With a gre­at wil­ling­ness to expe­ri­ment, it allows us to par­ta­ke in his pri­va­te and pro­fes­sio­nal life and visual­ly inter­prets excerp­ts from his work wit­hout, howe­ver, ove­ru­sing ‘Kafkaesque’ imagery. It tells of fami­ly, fri­end­ship, pres­su­re and fear, inner and outer cons­traints, often in a playful man­ner, but also with appro­pria­te serious­ness, as in its tre­at­ment of the incre­asing­ly threa­tening situa­ti­on of Jews in Europe.

Hysteria

Hysteria

A film by Mehmet Akif Büyükatalay. Starts November 6th at the fsk. In German, English, Turkish, Kurdish, Arabic with German subtitles.

[Credits] [Tickets & Termine] [Trailer]

When a bur­ned Quran is found on a film set, the shoot takes a dark turn and the crew are thrown into turm­oil. Caught in the cross­fi­re, an intern, Elif, is drawn into a dan­ge­rous game of secrets, accu­sa­ti­ons and lies. Mehmet Akif Büyükatalay’s ambi­guous, pro­vo­ca­ti­ve con­spi­ra­cy thril­ler plays with the film-within-a-film motif and is rich in unex­pec­ted twists. A pier­cing reflec­tion on the power of images and the dyna­mics of per­cep­ti­on, pro­jec­tion and socie­tal hysteria.
