The young German filmmakers’ look at their own country is an attempt to show the many and very different faces of our western neighbour in its contemporary pains and joys. Starting with political and social films (“Biotop”, “Zeitpunkt X”), through those dealing with the environment (“Benztown”), problems with one’s own embarrassing apparel (“In den Binsen”) or the side effects of motherhood (“Wochenbett”), we will have a chance to learn more about German vices and virtues in all their complexity.
The programme includes films that will move, but also make us smile, contribute to relaxation or remind us that the film is also used to entertain.
