In the organizer's words:

Lebanese director Nadine Labaki, whose first film Caramel caused an international sensation, has scored another international success with this irresistible comedy.

A dusty backwater somewhere in Lebanon. Christians and Muslims have been living next door to each other here for ages and conflicts, especially between the men, have been going on for just as long. For the sake of peace, the women in the village concoct all kinds of unorthodox activities together, in which the village's only television, a Ukrainian table dance troupe and home-baked hash cookies play key roles.

A witty and timeless plea against religious fanaticism, chauvinism and violence, with a surprising ending.

Understanding, openness and coming into contact with people of different nationalities and origins are the motifs for the Kino Weltsichten film series. Once a month, the International Women's Film Festival Dortmund+Cologne, in cooperation with Odeon Kino Köln, shows entertaining and thought-provoking films from different countries to make the prism through which we see the world even more colorful.

People with and without an international history, women with refugee experience, their families and anyone interested in excellent, often rarely screened international films directed by women are cordially invited to the series.

Every first Sunday of the month at 12:00 noon at Odeon Kino Köln. Free admission.

Kino Weltsichten Köln is sponsored by the Cultural Office of the City of Cologne.
