Cinema Can Do The Sony Center
Tue 10.12.
21:00
Cinema
Arsenal 1
Located in the two upper floors of the Filmhaus in the Sony Center, the Deutsche Film- und Fernsehakademie Berlin (DFFB), which was founded in 1966, has been Arsenal’s neighbor for the last 24 years. Between 2000 and 2024, films were also repeatedly made at the DFFB which occupied the building as a cinematic space and represented it with the tools of fiction or documentary. Three of these works will be presented this evening and discussed with their filmmakers.
Director
Josie Rücker
Germany / 2004
18 min.
/ Digital file
Josie Rücker’s diploma film DIPLOM consists of a subjective plan sequence edited in camera that sets its sights on the inside of the DFFB with a sense of curiosity, confusion and ultimately consternation.
Director
Jan Bachmann
Germany / 2011
21 min.
/ DCP
Jan Bachmann’s UH, IT’S GREAT HERE! creates a constellation of disparate groups of characters in and around the building in a wild blend of the dynamic and the static.
Director
Niklas Buescher
Germany / 2024
20 min.
/ DCP
And in Niklas Buescher’s CENTER, the Sony Center is fictionalized with great empathy and patience as an eternal construction site already grown tired, with exhausted people who find spaces and opportunities for fleetingly tender encounters full of care. (mb)
