"Beauty in rupture, beginning in not knowing"

Two workshops on narrative formats in German post-war film and anti-Semitic, antiziganist and ableist continuities in West Germany

On both days, the participants will devote themselves to German post-war film in two workshops. In the first workshop, "Schönheit im Bruch, Anfang im Nichtwissen" (Beauty in Rupture, Beginning in Ignorance), HFF students and the makers of "Blickpunkte" will explore the narrative forms of German post-war film and the gaps in the tradition. In the workshop "Sohrab Shahid Saless and the German post-war film", the workshop participants will approach the film "Hans - Ein Junge in Deutschland" (1985) with the author, director, actor, musician and professor at the Munich University of Television and Film Tucké Royale. The workshop will examine different ways of dealing with German post-war realities and explore Sohrab Shahid Saless' filmmaking with text and image material in West Germany. Afterwards, the film will be shown at a public screening in the Therese-Giehse-Halle and commented on by Tucké Royale.
