This mini-festival, courtesy of the Goethe-Institut, showcases a fine selection of internationally acclaimed films in German with English subtitles including a suspenseful dramatisation of Germany’s postwar history, a haunting exploration of human survival in Fukushima, a refreshing new adaptation of a children’s classic – and much more.
Admission is free – just turn up early to secure your seats.
One day everything changes for supermarket cashier Gabi Kovanda. There is someone new in her life: God. No one else notices his sudden appearance, but her life is transformed. His voice intrudes on her thoughts and forces her out of her routine – much to her annoyance and the consternation of her husband. The comedy and wonder of the unwelcome encounter are captured through realistic narrative and God’s-eye camera angles. Who will triumph: Gabi or God? A visually arresting and warm-hearted feature from director Karl Markovics, who first came to attention as an actor (The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Counterfeiters).
118 mins.
