The 2017 German Short Film Prize will be awarded on 23.11. and the nominations are already out: a welcome opportunity to take a look at several films from both this year and the previous one at Arsenal on 11.12. This baton-passing of a very special kind includes films of different categories, which sometimes are classical representatives of them, but sometimes also experiment, play with boundaries, make you think, or are happy just to entertain. The 2016 films to be presented are HOMEWORK (Annika Pinske), EIN AUS WEG (Hannah Stragholz, Simon Steinhorst), and HEIMATURLAUB (Franz Winzentsen), while the ones from 2017 are LANDSTRICH (Juliane Ebner), THE LAST TAPE (Cyprien Clément-Delmas, Igor Kosenko), PIX (Sophie Linnenbaum). (fk) An event with numerous guests in collaboration with the Bundesverband Deutscher Kurzfilm. Moderated by Cornelia Klauß.
