Since the mid 1970s, Edgar Reitz has published numerous works on film theo- ry and film aesthetics as well as stories, essays, lyric and literary editions of his films. In 1995 he founded the Europäisches Institut des Kinofilms (EIKK) which he directed until 1998. Since 1994 he has also been a professor for Film at the State Academy for Design in Karlsruhe.

With her are the mortal remains of her mother, who passed away in Berlin. Awaiting the bright and inquisitive girl are her father Ebbo, an eccentric scientist with a dubious interest in racial breeding; her aunt Milla, who flees reality through music and affairs; and other members of her aristocratic German family, who are clinging to their privileges in a world on the brink of disaster. Upon finding a wounded Estonian anarchist on the estate, the passionate, impulsive Oda fearlessly hides him and secretly nurses him back to health, aware that her deed could trigger a chain reaction of un - controllable violence. The Poll Diaries hauntingly evokes the end-of-days atmosphere of a doomed society at the crossroads of the German and Russian Empires in the early years of the 20th century.

This year’s representative from Germany is Philip Koch with his new project The End of Childhood, which he describes as “a tale of guilt, told through the eyes of the innocent, until the boundaries finally blur.” Autumn, 1932. The eve of the Third Reich. In a village in upper Bavaria three children steal them- selves away from their boy scout squad to a lonely spot in the woods. One has a knife. Hans, Josef and Wolfi – all aged ten – press their hands together, in excitement, and become blood brothers, sealing their friendship forever. But after a long winter their world changes: Flags are replaced, as are their teacher, the mayor of the village and, shockingly: the boy scouts become forbidden by the new government. The blood brothers are forced to migrate to the “Deutsches Jungvolk”, the youngest branch of the Hitler Youth. Though Hans, originating from a liberal family, remains skeptical of the Nazis, his two friends fall for the activities and paradigms with which the Nazis begin to seduce the children: nice uniforms, songs at the camp fire, exciting games and sports. Slowly though, the three undergo the agonizing transformation from innocent children into over-committed Nazi-followers, racists and anti-Semites.

  • From Home Chronicle of a Vision
    HOME FROM HOME CHRONICLE OF A VISION A FILM BY EDGAR REITZ Set in a dreary, unforgiving mid-19th century German village in Hunsrück, Home From Home captures the plight of hundreds of thousands of Europeans who emigrated to faraway South America to escape the famine, poverty and despotism that ruled at home. Their motto was: “Any fate is better than death”. Edgar Reitz’s film is a heart-wrenching drama and love story set against the backdrop of this forgotten tragedy. It encompasses a time of tribulation and illuminates the revolutionary and intellectual spirit present in the souls who are center of this tale. Jakob, our protagonist, tries to immerse himself in literature and learning, as the rest of his family toils to fend off starvation. He dreams about leaving his village, Schabbach, for a new life in Brazil and the freedom of the wild South American jungle. Jakob’s brother, Gustav, returns from military service and his appearance is destined to shatter Jakob’s world and his love for Henriette, as it symbolizes the necessary rift that will set into motion the unraveling of the regimented family structure. 2013 | Germany | 230 min | German w/English Subtitles | B&W | Historical Fiction CORINTH FILMS PRESENTS AN ERF EDGAR REITZ FILMPRODUCTION MUNICH IN CO-PRODUCTION WITH LES FILMS DU LOSANGE PARIS AND ARD DEGETO BR WDR ARTE WITH THE PARTICIPATION OF CENTRE NATIONAL DE CINEMA ET DE L’IMAGE ANIMEE ARTE FRANCE CINE+ STARRING JAN DIETER SCHNEIDER ANTONIA BILL MAXIMILIAN SCHEIDT MARITA BREUER RÜDIGER KRIESE PHILINE LEMBECK AND MÉLANIE FOUCHÉ PRODUCED BY CHRISTIAN REITZ CO-PRODUCED BY MARGARET MENEGOZ SCREENWRITERS EDGAR REITZ GERT HEIDENREICH CINEMATOGRAPHY GERNOT ROLL PRODUCTION DESIGN TONI GERG† HUCKY HORBERGER COSTUME DESIGN ESTHER AMUSER MAKE UP ARTIST NICOLE STOEWESAND SOUND DESIGNER MARC PARISOTTO PHILIPPE WELSH EDITOR UWE KLIMMECK ORIGINAL MUSIC BY MICHAEL RIESSLER DIRECTED BY EDGAR REITZ German filmmaker, author and producer, Edgar Reitz grew up in the Hunsrück region, studied German language and literature, journalism and dramatics in Munich.

  • Press Release a Tribute To... Award to German Director Tom Tykwer One
    Press Release A Tribute to... Award to German Director Tom Tykwer One of Europe’s Most Versatile Directors August 24, 2012 This year’s A Tribute to... award goes to author, director and producer Tom Tykwer. This is the first time that a German filmmaker has ever received one of the Zurich Film Festival’s honorary awards. Tykwer will collect his award in person during the Award Night at the Zurich Opera House. The ZFF will screen his most important films in a retrospective held at the Filmpodium. The ZFF is delighted that one of Europe’s most versatile directors is coming to Zurich. “Tom Tykwer has ensured that German film has once more gained in renown, significance and innovation, both on a national and international level,” said the festival management. Born 1965 in Wuppertal, Tom Tykwer shot his first feature DEADLY MARIA in 1993. He founded the X Filme Creative Pool in 1994 together with Stefan Arndt and the directors Wolfgang Becker and Dani Levy. It is currently one of Germany’s most successful production and distribution companies. RUN LOLA RUN Tykwer’s second cinema feature WINTER SLEEPERS (1997) was screened in competition at the Locarno Film Festival. RUN LOLA RUN followed in 1998, with Franka Potente and Moritz Bleibtreu finding themselves as the protagonists in a huge international success. The film won numerous awards, including the Deutscher Filmpreis in Gold for best directing. Next came THE PRINCESS AND THE WARRIOR (2000), also with Frank Potente, followed by Tykwer’s fist English language production HEAVEN (2002), which is based on a screenplay by the Polish director Krzysztof Kieslowski and stars Cate Blanchett and Giovanni Ribisi.

    FLM302: READING GERMAN FILM 3: CONTEMPORARY GERMAN CINEMA Course Outline, 2019-2020 Semester A 15 credits Course Organiser Dr Alasdair King [email protected] Arts 1: 2.08 Office hours: Wednesday 11-1 Timetable Screenings: Tuesday 10-12, Arts 1 G.34 Lectures: Tuesday 1-2, Bancroft G.07 Seminars: Thursday 2-3, Arts 2 3.17 Course Description This module will allow students to analyse various aspects of German film culture in the new millennium. It explores developments in recent German filmmaking in the context of the increasing globalisation of media industries and images and in the context of contemporary cinema’s relationship to other media forms. Stu- dents will explore the dynamics of recent German cinema, including its successes at major award ceremonies and at film festivals, its relationship to Hollywood and to other international cinemas, its distinct approach to questions of the audience, of auteurism and of production, and to transnational images, particularly con- cerning the emergence of Turkish-German filmmaking. Students will also address the representation of politics, terrorism, history, heritage and the national past, the engagement with issues of performance, gender and sexuality, the use of genre and popular commercial film styles, and the re-emergence of a ‘counter cinema’ in the work of the ‘Berlin School’ and after. Seminar work on current trends will allow students to work independently to research an individual case study of a chosen film and its significance to contemporary German cinema.
