SUMMARY:Cocoon
DESCRIPTION:Part of the “Berlinale Selection 2020” film series programme. \nComing-of-Age // 95 minutes // 2020 // Director: Leonie Krippendorff\nRating R16 \nBerlin-Kreuzberg is Nora’s microcosm. Nora\, the silent observer\, is always tagging along: At parties\, at school\, at the pool\, on rooftops and in apartments. Nora drifts around the monotonous housing blocks with her big sister and her friends\, witnessing events that seem to cross-fade in the summer light. Girls who want to be slim and pretty\, boys who say dumb things to provoke or because they are in love. Ruthless smartphone cameras and fragile teenagers. But Nora has her own way of looking at the world\, and when she meets Romy\, she realizes why. There is music in the air\, Nora’s body is changing\, and caterpillars are spinning their cocoons. \nAWARDS\nThe screenplay for Cocoon (German: Kokon) was selected for the 2018 Berlinale Talents Script Station. \nActors/Actresses: Lena Urzendowsky\, Jella Haase\, Lena Klenke\, Elina Vildanova\, Anja Schneider \n\nLeonie Krippendorff\n \nBorn in Berlin\, Germany in 1985\, she studied directing at the Film University Babelsberg Konrad Wolf from 2009 to 2016. Her graduation film\, Looping\, was nominated for numerous national and international prizes and won several. She is currently working on the screenplays for two new feature film projects. Variety chose her as one of “10 Europeans to Watch 2020.”

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. 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: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

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.
