The German Contemporary Film Festival is back for its second edition with a variety of films from a wide range of directors, from the acclaimed to emerging talent. Films include: Die Brücke am Ibar (The Bridge over the Ibar River) (pictured bottom left), a powerful love story set during the civil war in Kosovo; Das Wochenende (The Weekend), which follows a released Red Army Faction terrorist on his first weekend out of prison; the light family comedy Eltern (Parents); and this year’s French-German collaboration Kohlhaas (pictured top left), based on Heinrich von Kleist’s novella and which was nominated for a Palme d’Or at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. The cycle also includes a documentary exploring the work of expressionist painter Max Beckmann and a special programming of the trilogy ‘Three Lives’ for detective fans, which focuses on one crime from three different angles.
