21St German Film Festival 2017 2 – 12 November 21ST GERMAN FILM FESTIVAL 2017 2 – 12 NOVEMBER #GermanFilmFestivalSG www.goethe.de/singapore/germanfilmfestival In partnership with Education Partner Official Airline Supported By Sprache. Kultur. Deutschland. The German Film Festival (GFF) will present its 21st edition in 2017 over two weeks from 2 to 12 November. This year, more than 30 ambitious and fascinating films will provide a unique insight into contemporary life 21ST in Germany and Europe. Through a wide range of genres – spanning art-house, comedy, historical drama, documentaries and music films – the audience will encounter powerful stories, fascinating characters, surprising GERMAN FILM perspectives and new insights. The films tell stories beyond borders, covering contemporary issues affecting lives around the world. FESTIVAL The opening film Western explores the tensions faced by a group of German workers in a foreign land, who are confronted with their own prejudice and mistrust due to language and cultural differences. The Bloom of Yesterday 2017 sets a romantic comedy within the unlikely subject of the Holocaust. Compelling drama Club Europe and comedy Welcome to Germany are two different portrayals of the refugee situation facing Europe. The line-up also includes a selection of documentary films with universal subjects and messages – from To Be a Teacher, about the school system, to Happy, which sees filmmaker Carolin Genreith trying to make sense of her divorced father’s plans to marry a woman he met in Thailand. This year marks the first time the Festival is involved with the creation of new cinematic content. Led by acclaimed Singaporean filmmaker K. Rajagopal, students from Puttnam School of Film and Animation, LaSalle College of the Arts, have produced their own short films in response to the works of German directors Rainer Werner Fassbinder and Fatih Akin. The Festival also embarks on Musikino, a co-curated programme with The Projector featuring music films. Aside from presenting family-friendly films with the Children’s Festival at the Singapore Botanic Gardens, the GFF will hold the Retrospective at the National Museum of Singapore, showing important film works from the 1970s, the decade when the Goethe-Institut Singapore had its first film event at the museum, to the 2010s.

Das Leben der Anderen – synopsis Oost-Berlijn, 1984. Glasnost is nog heel ver weg, de bevolking wordt onder de duim gehouden door het Ministerium für Staatssicherheit (Stasi), de Oost-Duitse geheime politie. De Stasi wordt alom gezien als een van de meest effectieve inlichtingendiensten ter wereld. Het doel van de Stasi: alles te weten komen. De succesvolle toneelschrijver Georg Dreyman (Sebastian Koch) en zijn geliefde, de actrice Christa- Maria Sieland (Martina Gedeck), zijn populaire intellectuele sterren in de DDR. Maar hun acties en vooral gedachten zijn niet altijd in lijn met de ideologie van de socialistische heilstaat. De minister van Cultuur is érg geïnteresseerd in Christa-Maria en geeft Stasi-agent Wiesler (Ulrich Mühe) opdracht de twee af te luisteren. Zoals gewoonlijk begint de bureaucratische Wiesler plichtsgetrouw aan deze taak. Boven hun appartement, op zolder, luistert hij dag en nacht hun leven af. Maar hoe meer hij in hun leven wordt gezogen, des te meer moeite heeft hij zijn loyaliteit naar de staat te behouden. Das Leben der Anderen 137 min. / 35mm / Kleur / Dolby Stereo / Duits gesproken / Duitsland, 2006 Nederlandse theatrale distributie:
