SUMMARY:International Short Film Festival Oberhausen Made in Germany 3
DESCRIPTION:Following the great success of last year’s Oberhausen International Short Film Festival Tour\, Artos House in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut are proud to welcome the screening of the programs ‘Award winners 2020’ on the 19th of November\, the ‘International Competition’ on the 20th of November and the ‘Made in Germany 3’ on the 21st of November at 20:00\, at ARTos House. \nIn the course of six decades\, the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen has developed into one of the most highly acclaimed cultural events worldwide – a place where renowned figures like Agnès Varda\, Martin Scorsese\, Alexander Kluge and Werner Herzog first showed their films. Oberhausen is the world’s oldest short film festival and in the meantime also enjoys an excellent standing in the art scene\, where short films and videos play an increasingly important role today \nScreening 21st of November \nThis compilation\, the third part of our series with the best German short films of the last ten years\, deals with the living conditions of migrants in Germany today. In 1984 six Turkish citizens died in Duisburg-Wanheimerort in an arson attack. While the police quickly ruled out a racist background\, from today’s point of view there is a lot of circumstantial evidence to prove it. “Dunkelfeld” goes in search of clues and reopens the case. In the animation “Brand”\, an East German mayor and his family are met with a wave of hatred when he agrees to take in refugees. The essay film “ma nouvelle vie européenne” reflects on Europe’s invisible borders from the perspective of Abou\, a Malian refugee in Germany\, making the camera a medium of self-empowerment. In “Three Notes”\, Jeannette Gaussi artistically processes the few remaining photographs of her Afghan childhood. The playful “Moruk” shows the introverted Hakan and the fun-loving Murat hanging out in the Kreuzberg neighbourhood. They meet daily\, smoke pot\, dream\, philosophize and argue. “Tiefenschärfe” finally reads in the markings of the places in Nuremberg where the so-called NSU committed three murders. Here the pen becomes the camera and the camera becomes the actor while the film traces the unsettling impact of these attacks on society. \n  \nMade in Germany 3 \n  \nDark Figure \nOle-Kristian Heyer/Patrick Lohse/ \nMarian Mayland\, Germany 2020\, \ncolour\, German\, Turkish with English subs\, 16‘ \n  \nAblaze \nJan Koester/Alexander Lahl\, Germany 2019\, \ncolour\, German with English subs\, 5‘30‘‘ \n  \nmy new european life \nAbou Bakar Sidibé/Moritz Siebert\, Germany 2019\, \ncolour\, French with English subs\, 22‘30‘‘ \n  \nThree Notes \nJeannette Gaussi\, Germany 2006\, \ncolour\, no dialogue\, 4‘ \n  \nMoruk \nSerdal Karaça\, Germany 2009\, \nb/w\, German with English subs\, 28‘30‘‘ \n  \nDepth of Field \nMareike Bernien/Alex Gerbaulet\, Germany 2017\, \ncolour\, German with English subs\, 14‘30‘‘

SUMMARY:In Bewegung bleiben / Keep moving
DESCRIPTION:In January 1988\, Birgit Scherzer’s “Keith” is a phenomenal hit at the Komische Oper in Berlin\, capital of the GDR. The dance piece marks the young choreographer’s breakthrough. Seven dancers perform in “Keith”. Less than a year later\, four of them – including Birgit herself – will have left the GDR\, some of them fleeing during guest performances for the “class enemy”. \nThese dancers\, most of whom come from “modest” backgrounds\, have been trained by the state to be top performers. As an artistic elite and the public face of the GDR\, they are allowed to travel to the West in order to shine their light far and wide. Their families in the GDR are bargaining chips against their defecting. At first\, the creative atmosphere at the Komische Oper forms a protective shield against ideological strictures\, but at the end of the 1980s the pressure increases. In the months leading up to the fall of the Wall – an event that no one has foreseen – many ensemble members are faced with a crucial decision: to stay or to leave. \nFilmmaker Salar Ghazi was friends with some of the dancers at the time. Now he has sought them out to look back and reflect on events. Their memories and private VHS footage create a complex picture that brings to life the zeitgeist just before German Reunification. \nDirected by: Salar Ghazi \nProduction: Salar Ghazi \nMusic:   Gert Anklam\, Beate Gatscha \nCinematography: Salar Ghazi

SUMMARY:International Short Film Festival Oberhausen ‘International Competition’
DESCRIPTION:Following the great success of last year’s Oberhausen International Short Film Festival Tour\, Artos House in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut are proud to welcome the screening of the programs ‘Award winners 2020’ on the 19th of November\, the ‘International Competition’ on the 20th of November and the ‘Made in Germany 3’ on the 21st of November at 20:00\, at ARTos House. \nIn the course of six decades\, the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen has developed into one of the most highly acclaimed cultural events worldwide – a place where renowned figures like Agnès Varda\, Martin Scorsese\, Alexander Kluge and Werner Herzog first showed their films. Oberhausen is the world’s oldest short film festival and in the meantime also enjoys an excellent standing in the art scene\, where short films and videos play an increasingly important role today \nScreening 20th of November\nThis programme brings together some of the most interesting films from the 2020 International Competition. In 1982 the indigenous Zoque community was forced to relocate due to the eruption of a volcano. “( ( ( ( ( /*\ ) ) ) ) ) )” is the portrait of a village in Chiapas\, Mexico\, its culture\, sounds and architecture. The film documents the modern challenges and world view of a community that is also under political pressure to preserve its land and rights. Indigenous culture also plays an important role in the feature film “O Jardim Fantástico”. Here\, following an old tradition\, a teacher administers ayahuasca in her classroom to teach her students other levels of reality. In “BELLA” by Thelyia Petraki\, the boundaries between feature film and documentary become blurred when\, in Greece in the late 1980s\, first the country\, then the world\, and perhaps even her personal environment undergoes serious change before the eyes of the idealistic worker Anthi. In “Gira Ancora” an adolescent roams his neighbourhood in Palermo. In the tradition of Neorealism\, the camera lets us participate in the life of this community and at the same time shows how the rumours about his mother gradually make him an outsider. The protagonist’s world contracts in ever tighter circles. \nInternational Competition\nThe Fantastic Garden \nTico Dias/Fábio Baldo\, Brazil 2019\, \ncolour\, Portuguese with English subs\, 21‘ \n  \n( ( ( ( ( /*\ ) ) ) ) ) \nSaúl Kak/Charles Fairbanks\, Mexico 2019\, \ncolour\, Spanish with English subs\, 18‘30‘‘ \n  \nBELLA \nThelyia Petraki\, Greece 2020\, colour\, \nGreek\, English\, Russian with English subs\, 24‘30‘‘ \n  \nOne More Round \nElena Petitpierre\, Switzerland 2019\, \ncolour\, Italian with English subs\, 22‘

SUMMARY:International Short Film Festival Oberhausen Award winners 2020
DESCRIPTION:Following the great success of last year’s Oberhausen International Short Film Festival Tour\, Artos House in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut are proud to welcome the screening of the programs ‘Award winners 2020’ on the 19th of November\, the ‘International Competition’ on the 20th of November and the ‘Made in Germany 3’ on the 21st of November at 20:00\, at ARTos House. \nIn the course of six decades\, the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen has developed into one of the most highly acclaimed cultural events worldwide – a place where renowned figures like Agnès Varda\, Martin Scorsese\, Alexander Kluge and Werner Herzog first showed their films. Oberhausen is the world’s oldest short film festival and in the meantime also enjoys an excellent standing in the art scene\, where short films and videos play an increasingly important role today \nScreening 19th of November\nThis selection of winners of the 2020 festival also includes works that have even received several awards. Sohrab Hura’s “Bittersweet” is a reflection on family relationships and domestic spaces\, exploring the bond between the filmmaker and his mother and that between his mother and her beloved dog. Hura uses his grainy flash shots to sensitively capture intimate and banal moments in the life of his mother\, who suffers from acute paranoid schizophrenia. In Bjørn Melhus’ elaborately produced science fiction film “SUGAR”\, a robot attempts to free the inhabitant of a post-apocalyptic consumer world from the prison of his routines through physical proximity. The finely staged “Shepherds” by Teboho Edkins shows cattle thieves serving time in a prison in Lesotho. They talk about their lives and why they came here. The closed room becomes a stage for universal dramas of mankind. In “A Month of Single Frames”\, on the other hand\, Lynne Sachs processes material that was given to her by filmmaker and performance artist Barbara Hammer shortly before her death. The result is an expressive study of life in all its forms and the difficulty of facing death. The film\, which was awarded the Grand Prize of the City of Oberhausen\, is convincing in its ability to find poetry and complexity in simple things. \n  \nAward Winners\n  \nA Month of Singles Frames \nLynne Sachs\,USA 2019\, \ncolour\, English\, 14‘ \n  \nShepherds \nTeboho Edkins\, France/South Africa/Germany \n2020\, colour\, Sotho with English subs\, 27‘ \n  \nBittersweet \nSohrab Hura\, India 2019\, \ncolour and b/w\, English\, 14‘ \n  \nSUGAR \nBjørn Melhus\, Germany 2019\, \ncolour and b/w\, English\, 20‘30‘‘

SUMMARY:Moving Silence
DESCRIPTION:An evening dedicated to contemporary “silent” moving image and experimental sound\nFollowing the great success of Moving Silence in Cyprus for the past ten years at ARTos\, Moving Silence takes place for the eleventh consecutive year in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut Cyprus. On Thursday\, 18 November 2021 at 20:30 at ARTos\, musicians and composers will meet to perform live soundtracks for silent video and film works by contemporary creators of their choice.  The audience will have a unique experience where the musicians and composers perform live their music while the films/videos that have inspired them are simultaneously screened. \n“Any visual style can profit from a sound language\, by using advanced digital technologies as well as old analogue techniques. Live performances sustain and amplify the films as musicians can breathe new life into silent cinema\, which inappropriately remained silent for such a long time.” Encouraging collaboration and exchange between musicians\, artists and cinematographers\, the Moving Silence platform\, therefore\, invites the Cyprus audience to new audiovisual experiences expressed through live improvisations and interpretations\, where experimental image and sound are expected to meet in unusual and unexpected ways. \nWhat is Moving Silence?\nMoving Silence was originally founded in the summer of 2009 by the musician Marco Brosolo\, filmmaker Matthias Fritsch and producer Federico Bassetti with the aim to create events that connect the roots of cinematography with the present aesthetics of image\, the live music production and the potential of new technology. It constitutes a poetic\, intercultural and collaborative attempt in times of information overload. It embraces experimentation and merging between contemporary forms of visual and sound inviting artists from different parts of the world to join in. Moving Silence events have taken place in different cities around Europe.

SUMMARY:Welcome to Siegheilkirchen (aka Snotty Boy)
DESCRIPTION:The first Austrian feature-length animation film\, inspired by characters created by late Austrian caricaturist Manfred Deix. \nThe ultra-Catholic provincial village of Siegheilkirchen in the 1960s\, somewhere in the hinterland of Austria: The innkeeper’s son\, known only as “Rotzbub / Snotty Boy\,” resents the narrow-minded confines of his home village and passes the time by drawing nude pictures of the butcher’s assistant. The apparently artistically gifted snotty boy causes a stir in the bigoted and old-fashioned village community with his caricatures. Based on the life of Manfred Deix\, the animated film gives an entertaining insight into the young years of the Austrian Republic\, peppered with biting humor. \nThis film screening is organized in cooperation with the Friends of Cinema Society. \n  \nView trailer here. \n  \nAge restriction 18+ years \n  \n15 November 2021 – 20:00 – Pantheon Cinema\, Nicosia \n2021 – Austria – Marcus H.

SUMMARY:Jenseits des Sichtbaren - Hilma af Klint / Beyond the visible - Hilma af Klint
DESCRIPTION:The art world makes a sensational discovery – just 100 years too late. In 1906 Hilma af Klint paints her first abstract picture\, long before Kandinsky\, Mondrian or Malewitsch. In total\, she creates over 1500 abstract paintings\, which remain hidden from posterity for decades. How could it be that a woman founded abstract painting at the beginning of the 20th century and no one took any notice of it? \nThis cinematic approach to a pioneer whose sensual work fascinates\, not only artistically\, shows a lifelong search for meaning that seeks to grasp life beyond the visible. Hilma af Klint’s extraordinary world of thought ranges from biology and astronomy to theosophy and the theory of relativity\, spanning a fascinating cosmos of unique images and notes. \nToday\, the artist inspires millions with her unrestrained thinking\, which culminates in an overwhelming oeuvre and turns the historiography of art on its head. \n  \nDirected by: Halina Dyrschka \nProduction: Eva Illmer\, Halina Dyrschka \nMusic:   Damian Scholl \nCinematography: Alicja Pahl\, Luana Knipfer \nFilm editing: Antje Lass\, Mario Orias

SUMMARY:Disappearing Wall
DESCRIPTION:The “Disappearing Wall” is a unique object. Europeans selected famous quotes – fragments from songs and poems\, quotes from their favorite films\, novels and philosophical works. These quotes will be presented in the installation to illustrate the linguistic and intellectual diversity of our continent. The “Disappearing Wall” invites passers-by to take a piece of this diversity with them. The wall is filled with thousands of small wooden blocks\, which are engraved with quotes. Visitors can keep them as a souvenir or give them away to friends and acquaintances. \nAs the quote-blocks gradually disappear\, so does the wall. This process symbolically shows that the walls that we build and separate communities\, peoples and everyday people can disappear with collective effort. \nWhile the installation is presented in Cyprus\, it is also presented in Belgium\, Germany\, the Netherlands\, Great Britain / Northern Ireland\, Lithuania\, Spain\, Italy\, Greece and Poland. This interactive wall installation “Disappearing Wall” is based on the idea of Maria Yablonina and carried out by engineer Werner Sobek. She developed this idea in a workshop\, which was initiated by the Goethe-Institut. \nThe project “Dissapearing Wall” was funded by the German Federal Foreign Office on the occasion of the German EU Council Presidency.

SUMMARY:Automotive
DESCRIPTION:Part of the “Berlinale Selection 2020” film series programme.  \nDocumentary // 80 minutes // 2020 // Director: Jonas Heldt \nWhat is the value of work in the age of the digital revolution? In Ingolstadt\, 20-year-old Sedanur spends her nights sorting car parts on the assembly line for the robots. In the vast factory as high as a house\, forklifts circle each other beneath fluorescent lights and temp workers fight to keep their posts. Times are tough because Audi is about to cut a tenth of its workforce. Sedanur has no desire to find a husband and have children. She dreams of driving her own Mercedes one day. But when the diesel crisis kicks in\, she is one of the first to be let go. At the same time\, 33-year old Eva\, a headhunter working for Audi\, is looking for experts to automate some of their logistics. So-called “smart” factories that run without people are already emerging all over Europe. Eva knows that one day\, even her own job will be replaced by algorithms. But by then\, if all goes according to plan\, she will be living with her girlfriend in the Caribbean and will not have to work at all. Two very different representatives of a generation in which\, sooner or later\, everyone will be replaceable\, and for whom work as the basis of life is neither a certainty nor necessarily a source of identity. \nAWARDS\nAt the Berlinale 2020 Automotive was nominated for the Berlinale Documentary Award. \n\nJonas Heldt \nIn primary school\, he wanted to become a wildlife filmmaker. Having grown up in a small Bavarian village where whoever drove a Bavarian-made car was considered to have made it in life\, he moved to Berlin where he began to make his first documentaries and also worked as a radio reporter. Before filming Automotive\, he completed Hinterwelten 2014 and Tara 2017.

SUMMARY:Disappearing Wall *POSTPONED*
DESCRIPTION:*Postponed. New dates will be announced.* \nThe “Disappearing Wall” is a unique object. Europeans selected famous quotes – fragments from songs and poems\, quotes from their favorite films\, novels and philosophical works. These quotes will be presented in the installation to illustrate the linguistic and intellectual diversity of our continent. The “Disappearing Wall” invites passers-by to take a piece of this diversity with them. The wall is filled with thousands of small wooden blocks\, which are engraved with quotes. Visitors can keep them as a souvenir or give them away to friends and acquaintances. \nAs the quote-blocks gradually disappear\, so does the wall. This process symbolically shows that the walls that we build and separate communities\, peoples and everyday people can disappear with collective effort. \nWhile the installation is presented in Cyprus\, it is also presented in Belgium\, Germany\, the Netherlands\, Great Britain / Northern Ireland\, Lithuania\, Spain\, Italy\, Greece and Poland. This interactive wall installation “Disappearing Wall” is based on the idea of Maria Yablonina and carried out by engineer Werner Sobek.

SUMMARY:Oberhausen on Tour - "German Competition"
DESCRIPTION:Following the great success of last year’s Oberhausen International Short Film Festival Tour\, in Cyprus\, ARTos Foundation in collaboration with the Goethe Institut are proud to welcome the screening of the programs ‘Made in Germany 2: Inner City Life’ on the 4th of November and the ‘German Competition’ on the 5th of November at 19:30\, at ARTos Foundation. \nIn the course of six decades\, the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen has developed into one of the most highly acclaimed cultural events worldwide – a place where renowned figures like Agnès Varda\, Martin Scorsese\, Alexander Kluge and Werner Herzog first showed their films. Oberhausen is the world’s oldest short film festival and in the meantime also enjoys an excellent standing in the art scene\, where short films and videos play an increasingly important role today. \nThis programme with works from the 2018 German Competition centres on civil society\, the globalised middle class and tourism. While Willy Hans\, in calm black-and-white pictures but with subtle allusions to horror film\, recounts how a small family with educated middle-class principles gradually falls apart\, Yannick Spiess shows us the everyday routine and dedication to duty of a wealthy Swiss woman. In between\, Nikita Diakur has dolls dance furiously in the courtyard of a prefab housing estate. In a free adaptation of Michel Houellebecq\, “Beyond Beach” serenely imagines the lethargy and indifference of Western hedonists on Latin American beaches as a colourful daydream. In the work by Judith Hopf\, a slender apartment tower trots out of the picture whenever things get too boring for it. And finally\, in “Bigger Than Life”\, the winner of the 3sat Promotional Award\, music sets the tone of the film. It provides the playful structure for this survey of a chauvinist urban project that is intended to catapult Skopje up among the principal arenas of European history alongside Rome and Athens. \n  \nGerman Competition: \nBeyond Beach \nClara Winter/Miguel Ferráez\, Germany 2018 colour\, English/Spanish with English subs\, 14’ \nDie Tage / The Days \nYannick Spiess\, Germany 2018 colour\, German with English subs\, 20‘ \nFest\nNikita Diakur\, Germany 2018 colour\, no dialogue\, 3‘ \nDas satanische Dickicht – DREI / The Satanic Thicket – THREE  \nWilly Hans\, Germany 2017 colour and b/w\, German with English subs\, 21‘30“ \nOut\nJudith Hopf\, Germany 2018 colour\, no dialogue\, 2‘30 \nBigger Than Life\nAdnan Softić\, Germany/Italy/Macedonia 2018\, colour\, English\, 30‘ \n  \nRunning time 91’

SUMMARY:Oberhausen on Tour - "Made in Germany 2: Inner City Life"
DESCRIPTION:Following the great success of last year’s Oberhausen International Short Film Festival Tour\, in Cyprus\, ARTos Foundation in collaboration with the Goethe Institut are proud to welcome the screening of the programs ‘Made in Germany 2: Inner City Life’ on the 4th of November and the ‘German Competition’ on the 5th of November at 19:30\, at ARTos Foundation. \nIn the course of six decades\, the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen has developed into one of the most highly acclaimed cultural events worldwide – a place where renowned figures like Agnès Varda\, Martin Scorsese\, Alexander Kluge and Werner Herzog first showed their films. Oberhausen is the world’s oldest short film festival and in the meantime also enjoys an excellent standing in the art scene\, where short films and videos play an increasingly important role today. \n“Made in Germany 2: Inner City Life” the second part of our series with the best German short films of the past ten years\, takes a fresh look at the city and its architecture. At the centre of this programme is the winner of the 2015 German competition\, “Shift”\, which weaves together the director’s personal family history with a portrait of the city of Salzgitter. The film combines analysis and imagination as it follows the stream of revealed histories. Kerstin Honeit invites construction workers to a coffee party among the skeleton construction work of the Berlin City Palace for a grotesque staging of the demolition and reconstruction of nationalistic myths. Marian Mayland\, on the other hand\, recalls a demolished apartment block in Manchester by furiously combining documentary material with excerpts from cultural counterprojects of the early techno and acid house scene. And Maximilian Villwock shows us how love in nocturnal Berlin turns into a power struggle when the ego takes the upper hand. Finally\, “Please Say Something” animates the city in a way you have never seen and sets off an enigmatic and futuristic fireworks display of images about the relationship between a cat and a mouse in the internet era. All these works were festival favourites in Oberhausen and elsewhere. \nMade in Germany 2: Inner City Life: \nPANDA III \nMaximilian Villwock\, Germany 2016 colour\, no dialogue\, 13’30’’ \nfuture past perfect pt. 03 (U_08-1)\nCarsten Nicolai\, Germany 2009 colour\, no dialogue\, 4’ \nSchicht / Shift \nAlex Gerbaulet\, Germany 2015 colour + b/w\, German with English subs\, 28’30’’ \nmy castle your castle\nKerstin Honeit\, Germany 2017 colour\, German with English subs\, 15’ \nDriving Around Where the Crescents Used To Be.

SUMMARY:Moving Silence
DESCRIPTION:Following the great success of Moving Silence in Cyprus for the past nine years at ARTos\, Moving Silence takes place for the tenth consecutive year in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut Cyprus. On Sunday\, 1 November 2020 at 20:30 at ARTos\, musicians and composers will meet to perform live soundtracks for silent video and film works by contemporary creators of their choice.  The audience will have a unique experience where the musicians and composers perform live their music while the films/videos that have inspired them are simultaneously screened. \nThis year\, Moving Silence collaborates with the Freiraum Festival and will be streamed live through the Freiraum Festival\, where audiences around the world will have the opportunity to connect and enjoy the event live. \nMoving Silence was originally founded in the summer of 2009 by the musician Marco Brosolo\, filmmaker Matthias Fritsch and producer Federico Bassetti with the aim to create events that connect the roots of cinematography with the present aesthetics of image\, the live music production and the potential of new technology. “Any visual style can profit from a sound language\, by using advanced digital technologies as well as old analogue techniques. Live performances sustain and amplify the films as musicians can breathe new life into silent cinema\, which inappropriately remained silent for such a long time.” \nThe Freiraum Festival is a collaborative\, decentralised democratised festival taking place simultaneously in the physical and the digital worlds. With more than 20 local events around Europe\, more than 30 speakers and contributors and more than ten art works especially produced for the online format\, the Festival format does not only respond to the new pandemic reality\, but to the crucial questions of our time. \nParticipating musicians \nAlexia Vassilliou\, Andreas Moustoukis\, Tassos Stylianou\, Nektarios Rodosthenous\, Stephanie Alexi\, Achilleas Kentonis\, Simos Tziakouris\, Ariadne Papantoniou\, Mari Derderyan\, Spyros Charalambous\, George Savva\, Erato Moustouki\, Haris Sophocleous \nParticipating Film Directors \nRuben Seca\, Daniel Levi\, Matthias Fritsch\, Nikki Schuster\, Wojtek Skowron\, Florian Groll \nOrganised by ARTos Foundation and Moving Silence\nWith the support of  the Goethe-Institut Cyprus and the Freiraum Festival \nLive streaming link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puElapCXLzs&feature=youtu.be

SUMMARY:Disappearing Wall
DESCRIPTION:The “Disappearing Wall” is a unique object. Europeans selected famous quotes – fragments from songs and poems\, quotes from their favorite films\, novels and philosophical works. These quotes will be presented in the installation to illustrate the linguistic and intellectual diversity of our continent. The “Disappearing Wall” invites passers-by to take a piece of this diversity with them. The wall is filled with thousands of small wooden blocks\, which are engraved with quotes. Visitors can keep them as a souvenir or give them away to friends and acquaintances. \nAs the quote-blocks gradually disappear\, so does the wall. This process symbolically shows that the walls that we build and separate communities\, peoples and everyday people can disappear with collective effort. \nWhile the installation is presented in Cyprus\, it is also presented in Belgium\, Germany\, the Netherlands\, Great Britain / Northern Ireland\, Lithuania\, Spain\, Italy\, Greece and Poland. This interactive wall installation “Disappearing Wall” is based on the idea of Maria Yablonina and carried out by engineer Werner Sobek. She developed this idea in a workshop\, which was initiated by the Goethe-Institut. \nThe project “Dissapearing Wall” was funded by the German Federal Foreign Office on the occasion of the German EU Council Presidency.
