On Family Sunday in May, we will be showing three episodes of the GDR television series "The Special Day": a series of fifteen-minute short films that take a close look at children's lives. Under the direction of renowned directors such as Roland Steiner and Volker Koepp, and co-directed by the children themselves, the films interweave documentary, poetic and surrealistic elements.
After watching the films together in the cinema, we will get creative ourselves and explore the surroundings of the Filmhaus as attentive observers.
