BREVE STORIA D'AMORE (Eine stürmische Affäre)
Rocco (Adriano Giannini) steht als Seismologe fest im Leben, ist dazu noch glücklich verheiratet und hat mit Schachboxen auch noch ein extravagantes Hobby, dem er jeden Freitagabend frönt. Doch dann tritt Lea (Pilar Fogliati) in sein Leben und es ist im ihn geschehen. Rocco beginnt eine Affäre mit der jungen Mutter, die schnell so gar nicht mehr zufrieden mit dem diskreten Arrangement ist. Lea will sich nicht in Hotelzimmern verstecken. Getrieben von wachsender Eifersucht, überschreitet sie immer mehr Grenzen, die Rocco eigentlich zwischen sie und sein Privatleben gezogen hat. Schon bald stellt Lea auch Roccos Frau nach und die Affäre droht aufzufliegen.

THEATER WITHOUT AUDIENCE
"Learning from Brecht how to think of oneself in the third person singular, I realized that displacement is not a curse but part of condition humaine."
– ATW
The founder of the Gießen School, Andrzej Tadeusz Wirth (1927-2019) coined the term "post-dramatic theatre" in post-war Europe for a theatre form that has no definition. ATW brought with the Institute for Applied Theatre Studies in Giessen the theatre stage outside, so the pacifist mission of the theatre reaches everyone. The essay film "Theatre Without Audience" by Paweł Kocambasi emphasizes and reinforces the importance of democratic values today – you are part of the meaning which is now created
ENDANGERED GESTURES
Der Kurzfilm Endangered Gestures zeigt Handgesten für Begriffe und Konzepte, die derzeit weltweit durch autoritäre Entwicklungen bedroht sind. Die zunehmend absurden Gesten lassen die Betrachtenden fragen, welche Strategien und Verrenkungen erforderlich sein werden, um diese Errungenschaften im algorithmischen Zeitalter zu schützen und zu bewahren. Die Arbeit ist eine Reflexion über Zensur und technologische Voreingenommenheit sowie eine kleine Erinnerung an Dinge, die es wert sind, erhalten und gefeiert zu werden.

THE LOVE THAT REMAINS
VERSCHLEIß
„Verschleiß“ ist eine filmische Arbeit mit einer Länge von ca. 15–20 Minuten, die sich mit Szenen des urbanen Alltags in Neukölln auseinandersetzt. In fragmentierten Bild- und Tonsequenzen verdichten sich Arbeitsabläufe, wiederkehrende Bewegungen und zufällige Begegnungen zu einer filmischen Annäherung an das Spannungsfeld von out / side / in. Die Arbeit untersucht Wiederholung und Bruch sowie das Wechselspiel von Innen- und Außenräumen im städtischen Kontext.
