THE ROOM NEXT DOOR

In the organizer's words:

Feature film - E 2024 - 110' - OmU

Director: Pedro Almodóvar

Martha, a war reporter suffering from cancer, asks a former colleague to accompany her on a final journey. The road trip ends in a bungalow in the woods of upstate New York. Pedro Almodóvar's touching, tender melodrama, his 23rd film and his first in English, was the deserved winner of the Golden Lion in Venice. His typically rich primary colors have a wonderfully autumnal tone in this meditation on death, art and friendship. And Tilda Swinton and Julianne Moore once again shine in the leading roles.

All about the power of images in film, pop culture, art and society. At FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE from October 17-24, 2024 and always online.

*Editorial Note: As the Rausgegangen team, we take a long-term view of the debate and criticism surrounding FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE. We take this debate very seriously. For us, the following is fundamentally clear: We reject any form of toxic behavior in the workplace and actively position ourselves against it. But what we do: We recommend content. We stand behind the filmmakers, the artists and the works. Regardless of politics, we want to recommend films and give you the opportunity to get to know the festival and its program. That's why you'll find the FILM FESTIVAL COLOGNE content on our website.
