Marran Gosov – A Bulgarian in Schwabing

Under the pseudonym "Marran Gosov", German-Bulgarian filmmaker Tzvetan Marangosoff shot a total of 27 short films and five features between 1965 and 1975, the majority of which in the Munich district of Schwabing. These comprise an incomparable and comprehensive cinematic oeuvre, which creates a unique picture of the time due to its continuity. The quality of Gosov's films can be put down to a special mix of a quirky love of experimentation, a propensity for the documentary, small, cleverly trenchant stories from everyday life, with usually young professional actors, a humorous lightness of touch and an outsider's perspective, that of someone still from the east. He can safely be counted as part of the so-called "Munich Group" that loosely formed around Klaus Lemke, Werner Enke, May Spils, Roger Fritz, Eckhardt Schmidt and Rudolf Thome. We are showing a short film program and his last feature WONNEKLOSS. (Bernhard Marsch) (25.7., with guest Bernhard Marsch)
