Balkan, Baby

Kafana na Balkanu
Boris Gavrilovin
Germany / 2024 / 0:12:30

Martina is a good immigrant. At least she’s always done everything she can to be perceived as such in Germany. Dunja is self-confident, non-conformist and, above all, she stands by her Yugoslavian and Balkan origins, unlike Martina.








 

Torii

Martin Gerigk
Germany / 2024 / 0:12:30


Torii is a short film in the form of an audiovisual composition about the traditional Shinto gates of the same name in Japan. The film uses these gates which symbolically mark the transition from the mundane to the sacred as representatives of a personal synaesthetic and spiritual journey through five levels of consciousness, traveling from existentialism to metaphysics, abstraction, and the Shinto deities called Kami, culminating in a final transition that weaves together these diverse philosophical threads.

Does this apply to you?

Fühlst du dich angesprochen?
Evelyn Deller, Selena Knoop
Germany / 2023 / 0:18:48

In this nearly surreal Super 8 film, we combine lyrical text and autobiographical material to come to terms with our past traumatic relationships. It's about freeing ourselves, opening our mouths and speaking out about what we've experienced, what our relationships had in common and what so many other people also experience and the spirals they can't find their way out of for a long time.
