Specters of Freedom (Tobias Hering)

"But ah, my raucous laughter smuggled in" (Aimé Césaire, "Notebook of a Return to the Native Land"). Specters of Freedom is devoted to Third Cinema that breaks the pact of the cinema and is always ready to bite the hand that feeds it. (LE PRESIDENT by Jean-Pierre Bekolo, 13.6.) – a heretical sermon (LADONI by Artur Aristakisyan, 13.6.), the taming of a recalcitrant streak of luck in Dakar (LE FRANC by Djibril Diop Mambéty, 15.6.) – MABABANGONG BANGUNGOT (Perfumed Nightmare) by Kidlat Tahimik (15.6.) – a West Side Story on a slave ship (WEST INDIES von Med Hondo, 15.6.) and cinema as a double agent in a cold war that drove the world crazy (SADY SKORPIONA by Oleg Kovalov, 14.6.).
