9 orașe din România în top 10 orașe europene sufocate de trafic, Street Delivery anunță o dezbatere în mijlocul străzii pornind de la cifrele studiului Friendly City Index. Conform studiului, traficul este una dintre principalele probleme care trebuie rezolvate în România pentru orașe mai prietenoase. De la teme legate de cum ne simțim în orașe, problema lipsei spațiilor verzi sau a transportului în comun, vorbim cu arhitecta Maria Duda, parte din echipa Street Delivery 2025. La 20 de ani de Street Delivery, tema ediției aniversare vine „sub semnul întrebării”. Privim, pe de o parte, la parcursul unui eveniment-manifest care a crescut alături de oraș și comunitățile sale, iar pe de altă parte readucem în spațiul public exercițiul democratic al interogației și dezbaterii, în perioada 26–28 septembrie, pe strada Arthur Verona din București. Street Delivery a fost, încă de la începuturile sale, o platformă pentru oameni cărora le pasă de ce e în jurul lor: artiști, activiști idealiști sau pragmatici, poeți, muzicieni, arhitecți, designeri, urbaniști, comunități, cercetători, grădinari, jurnaliști, publicitari, graficieni, scriitori, profesori și studenți, fotografi, meșteșugari, performeri, oameni și organizații care dau viață orașului. La ediția de 20 de ani, Street Delivery devine nu doar un festival, ci un exercițiu colectiv de întrebări, răspunsuri și scenarii pentru orașele în care vrem să trăim. După o ediție dedicată Generației Z, care a transformat strada într-un spațiu al dialogului despre cum tinerii se raportează la oraș și la viitor, ediția din 2025 a Street Delivery, pusă sub semnul întrebării, redeschide strada Arthur Verona nu doar pietonilor, ci și curiozității colective: cum putem construi orașe care ne apropie, cum putem cultiva legături între generații și cum putem regândi spațiul comun ca pe un loc al întâlnirii și al reflecției? Acum, la douăzeci de ediții distanță, ridicăm întrebarea către comunitate: ce efect a avut Street Delivery asupra orașului și locuitorilor săi? Ce rol a avut, ce rol are și ce rol vrem să aibă în viitor?  „Ne dorim recuperarea autentică a spațiului public și reconectarea la valorile sale - spațiu sigur, confortabil, deschis, incluziv, în care luăm pulsul orașului, care ne inspiră să ne implicăm în construirea și apărarea binelui comun. Spațiul public este un spațiu al reconcilierii, al însănătoșirii, atât pentru orașul construit, cât și pentru cei care îl folosesc. Prin exersarea interacțiunii sociale, a preocupării pentru frumos în spațiul urban, pentru respectul celuilalt și al interesului public, Street Delivery devine un manifest al dreptului la spațiul public.” Maria Duda, curatoarea ediției aniversare de 20 de ani, a festivalului Street Delivery. La ediția aniversară, Street Delivery aduce în prim-plan șase teme cheie pentru felul în care trăim și împărtășim orașul, șase panouri cu întrebări vor fi instalate pe strada Arthur Verona, fiecare devenind un punct de pornire pentru o dezbatere publică, coordonată de un ambasador – o voce puternică din cultură, arhitectură, activism sau jurnalism. Cele șase întrebări devin borne ale festivalului, dar și repere pentru o discuție mai amplă despre viitorul spațiului public. Astfel, strada se transformă într-o agora contemporană, unde dezbaterea devine metoda prin care recuperăm democrația spațiului public. Andrei Cohn – o voce pentru „Orașul și comunicarea” Regizor și scenarist, Andrei Cohn va invita comunitatea să-și pună întrebarea: cum putem conviețui altfel decât prin alienare? El va porni de la ideea că dialectica individualităților – fie că vorbim despre cetățeni, comunități sau cartiere – a creat orașe precum Istanbul, Paris sau New York și va atrage atenția că Bucureștiului îi lipsește încă un spirit comun discutat și asumat. Cohn este legat de istoria Street Delivery prin „panoul de critică socială” de pe Strada Verona, devenit simbol urbanistic și cultural. Ca regizor, va aduce în discuție și experiența sa artistică, de la scurtmetrajele Înainte și după 22/12/1989, Maica Domnului de la parter și Fotografii de familie, până la lungmetrajele Acasă la tata, Arest și Săptămâna Mare (2024, Berlinale). Tudor Ganea – o voce pentru „Orașul și imaginea” Arhitect și scriitor, Tudor Ganea va provoca publicul să reflecteze la felul în care imaginea definește orașul: cum îl vedem, cum îl reprezentăm și cum îl trăim. Cunoscut pentru romanele Cazemata, Miere, Porci, 8, Cântecul păsării de plajă și Vreau să aud numai de bine, traduse și premiate, Ganea va aduce în dialog și experiența sa profesională din Administrația pentru consolidarea clădirilor cu risc seismic, unde se confruntă cu tensiunea dintre patrimoniu și prezent. El va explora împreună cu comunitatea modul în care imaginea literară, arhitecturală și vizuală influențează percepția orașului și a spațiului public. Carmen Gheorghe – o voce pentru „Orașul și femeia” Activistă și președinta E-Romnja, Carmen Gheorghe va aduce în discuție felul în care femeile – rome și nerome – accesează orașul și își revendică locul în spațiul public. Întrebările pe care le va ridica vor viza obstacolele, tensiunile și formele de solidaritate care pot transforma orașul într-un spațiu incluziv. Laureată a premiului Women of Courage (2022), Gheorghe va explora împreună cu comunitatea și cu invitatele sale – Tudorina Mihai, Anca Nica și Nora Costache – cum se pot construi oaze de vizibilitate și curaj pentru femei. Iulia Iordan – o voce pentru „Orașul și singurătatea” Scriitoare, educator muzeal și curator, Iulia Iordan va provoca comunitatea să reflecteze la felul în care orașul generează izolare și, în același timp, poate oferi contexte de apropiere. Autoare de cărți pentru copii, resurse educaționale și expoziții interactive, co-fondatoare a Asociației De Basm și membră a Asociației Da'DeCe, Iordan va explora împreună cu publicul cum literatura, muzeele și arta contemporană pot combate singurătatea și pot întări comunitatea urbană. Emilia Șercan – o voce pentru „Adevărul și informația” Jurnalist de investigație și lector universitar, Emilia Șercan va deschide dialogul despre cum poate fi construit un spațiu public bazat pe adevăr și transparență. Cu o carieră de aproape trei decenii și investigații de referință despre plagiat, corupție și manipulare mediatică, Șercan va explora împreună cu comunitatea cum circulă informația și cum putem rezista într-o epocă a fake news-ului și a dezinformării. Cristian Neagoe – o voce pentru „Street Delivery? sau !” Activist de mediu, traducător și co-fondator Street Delivery, Cristian Neagoe va invita comunitatea să reflecteze la chiar identitatea acestui eveniment. După 20 de ani, el se întreabă: ce a însemnat Street Delivery pentru București și ce ar putea însemna în următoarele două decenii? Absolvent de filosofie, organizator de evenimente și curator de expoziții, Neagoe va explora alături de public sensul și viitorul acestui manifest urban, punând sub semnul întrebării continuitatea și transformarea sa. Cele șase dezbateri publice, introduse în ultimii ani ca parte a demersului de a transforma Street Delivery din festival de stradă în instrument și promotor de politici publice, vor avea și de această dată rolul de a conecta administrația publică, profesioniștii și societatea civilă într-un dialog constructiv și deschis despre temele actuale. În 2025, cele șase întrebări vor popula fizic strada Arthur Verona, devenind pretexte pentru discuții informale între participanți, exerciții de dezbatere pentru elevi și studenți și declanșatoare ale dialogurilor publice dintre profesioniștii care, prin proiectele lor prezentate la Street Delivery de-a lungul celor 20 de ani, au adus mici sau mari îmbunătățiri orașului. La fel ca sintagmele reclamelor, întrebările se vor insera în gândurile vizitatorilor, invitându-i, chiar și temporar, la reflecție sau confruntare cu propriile atitudini, opțiuni și motivații legate de viața urbană. 42 de proiecte provenite din comunitate, pe scena ediției din acest an a Street Delivery  Vara aceasta, apelul de proiecte – acțiune definitorie a Street Delivery – a adunat 70 de inițiative venite din partea unor organizații, artiști și grupuri civice diverse, implicate în viața orașului. Street Delivery s-a bucurat de numărul mare de proiecte, iar dintre acestea, a selectat 42 să contribuie la ediția aniversară. Street Delivery a ales aceste inițiative pentru ca ediția din acest an să răspundă la cât mai multe întrebări – știute și neștiute – și, în același timp, să fie un exercițiu de creștere, de cultivare a empatiei și de înțelegere a relației dintre oameni și oraș. Proiectele vor aduce pe strada Arthur Verona ateliere, instalații artistice, intervenții civice și experiențe practice menite să pună orașul „sub semnul întrebării”, să învețe prin joacă și explorare și să creeze punți de empatie între oameni.

Das tiefste Blau | Von Würde, Rausch und Kampffischen In naher Zukunft sollen alte Menschen in spezielle Seniorenkolonien verbannt werden, damit die jüngere Generation ungestört ihre Produktivität steigern kann. Doch Tereza, 77 Jahre alt und wohnhaft in einer Industriestadt im Amazonasgebiet, weigert sich, dieser Anordnung zu folgen, und begibt sich stattdessen auf eine illegale Reise durch die brasilianische Wildnis. Auf ihrem Weg begegnet sie einer entschlossenen Nonne sowie einem geheimnisvollen Kapitän, der dank einer Schnecke tief in die Seelen anderer blicken kann. Das Drama „Das tiefste Blau“, das bei der Berlinale mit dem Silbernen Bären ausgezeichnet wurde, startet am 25. September endlich regulär in den deutschen Kinos. Laura und Stu haben den Film bereits gesehen und sprechen dabei nicht nur über das Werk selbst, sondern auch über Kampffische und die Faszination für veränderte Bewusstseinszustände.

Filmtipp: "Die Möllner Briefe" - Kinostart am Donnerstag, 25.09.2025 inselfilm Verlag, 96 min., Regie: Martina Priessner Uraufführung hatte dieser hervorragende Dokumentarfilm auf der Berlinale 2025. Die Premiere in Berlin fand am 17.09. in der Kulturbrauerei, präsentiert von Radio1, statt, moderiert von Knud Elstermann. Die Premiere in Hamburg war einige Tage zuvor im Abaton Kino. Der Dokumentarfilm "Die Möllner Briefe" von Martina Priessner geht zuerst einmal der Entdeckung von mehreren hundert Briefen nach, die den von den Nazianschlägen 1992 betroffenen Familien der Ratzeburger und der Mühlenstraße in Mölln zum Trost, Zuspruch, Solidarität und Anteilnahme geschickt worden waren. Bei den Anschlägen starben Bahide Arslan, ihre Enkelin Yeliz Arslan und deren Cousine Ayşe Yilmaz, zahlreiche Menschen wurden verletzt, verloren ihre Wohnungen und manche sind selbst durch die Behörden als Verdächtige verfolgt worden. Die Briefe waren jedoch von der Stadtverwaltung nie an die Familien weiter geleitet worden. Stattdessen sind sie durch das Ordnungsamt oder den Bürgermeister selbst geöffnet, gelesen und beantwortet und danach im Stadtarchiv aufbewahrt worden. Der Film behandelt aber noch viel, viel mehr. Es geht in Die Möllner Briefe nicht wie so oft um einen politischen Skandal, Deutsche und ihre Meinung zu Nazis oder juristische Gerechtigkeit … Der Film lässt den Tätern keinen Raum. Der Film fängt die jeweils individuellen Perspektiven der Betroffenen nicht nur ein, sondern sie sind die Akteure. Die Geschwister Yeliz - sie trägt den Namen ihrer getöteten Schwester, Namık und İbrahim Arslan und ihre Mutter Hava, die die Anschläge überlebt haben, stehen im Vordergrund. Dabei lässt die Erzählweise immer wieder aus diesen Gesprächen heraus auf gesellschaftliche Strukturen, deutsche sog. Erinnerungspolitik schauen und geht langsam wieder zurück zu den Einzelpersonen. Ohne Brüche ohne Stolpern, ganz vorsichtig und dabei deutlich und mit aller Klarheit. "Die Möllner Briefe" deckt eine riesige Spanne an Themen und Notwendigkeiten ab und ist ein wirklicher Schatz.

Wie Migration das Leben und das Selbstverständnis von Menschen formt, ist das Thema der Berliner Dokumentarfilmerin Martina Priessner. Ihr neuer Film "Die Möllner Briefe" fragt schonungslos nach den Zusammenhängen von Migration und Rassismus in Deutschland; Martina Priessner hat dafür Überlebende des Brandanschlags begleitet, bei dem im November 1992 drei Menschen aus türkischen Einwandererfamilien getötet wurden. Der Film wurde bei der Berlinale 2025 mit dem Panorama Publikumspreis ausgezeichnet. Kirsten Dietrich hat mit Martina Priessner gesprochen.

Une nouvelle vague du cinéma soudanais a émergé depuis 2019, portant les fruits de ce qui a été amorcé en 2010 comme un renouveau du mouvement cinématographique au Soudan. Quelques films remarquables ont précédé et accompagné la chute du régime d'Omar el-Béchir. La révolution artistique était déjà en marche. Parler des arbres, le documentaire de Suhaib Gasmelbari a été tourné d'une manière indépendante et sans autorisation préalable du pouvoir en place. Ce pouvoir avait fermé les salles de cinéma pour plaire aux islamistes. Il a exclu toute aide à la production. Pourtant, le jeune cinéma a pointé son nez et a fait sa sortie au grand jour, en même temps que le Hirak, le mouvement de la population dans les rues de Khartoum. En février 2019, le premier film de Suhaib Gasmelbari, Parler des arbres, est récompensé du prix du meilleur documentaire à la Berlinale. Son réalisateur accompagne avec tact quatre cinéastes soudanais de l'ancienne génération, qui essaient de projeter des films à travers le pays malgré l'interdiction imposée par le pouvoir. Et cette génération ne cesse de récolter des prix et annonce ainsi la naissance d'une nouvelle ère du cinéma soudanais. La même année, Tu mourras à 20 ans, d'Amjad Abou Alla, un premier film également, poétique et puissant, est projeté à la Mostra de Venise. Il sera très bien accueilli par les critiques. Depuis, une série de films marquants se fraient une place sur la scène internationale. Goodbye Julia de Mohamed Kordofani est l'exemple le plus parlant. Il a été projeté au Festival de Cannes en 2023 dans la compétition « Un certain regard ». Il a eu le prix de la mise en scène, ainsi que le prix parallèle de la liberté, avant de récolter au total 62 prix. Il raconte la déchirure du Soudan, à travers l'histoire de deux femmes au moment de la séparation du Soudan du Sud : « Le Soudan est un pays qui a toujours été intellectuellement fermé. Il a été toujours présent dans les bulletins d'informations avec des images d'atrocités et de destruction. Depuis notre indépendance, on passe d'une guerre à l'autre… Je pense que l'une des raisons du succès de mon film, est le fait qu'il soit mondialement apprécié, c'est parce que je montre le quotidien et la vie du citoyen. Cela donne au spectateur un accès au côté humain d'un Soudanais et permet de comprendre les dynamiques qui conditionnent ses relations avec les autres ». Les femmes ont fait leur entrée massivement dans le domaine. Elles expérimentent à leur tour cette liberté acquise. Sara Suliman, explore dans son documentaire Corps héroïques (2022), un thème jadis tabou : « Dans Corps héroïques, nous évoquons les corps et les mouvements du corps dans le mouvement féministe soudanais. Il était très important pour moi d'utiliser le mot corps dans le titre. C'est un mot sur lequel il y a beaucoup d'objection. Lors des entretiens pour le film, j'ai senti que les invitées de l'ancienne génération ont été un peu gênées de l'employer. Elles avaient des réserves, avec toujours ce sentiment que le corps implique un seul sens, celui de la sexualité. Il était donc très important de mettre fin à ses réserves et de changer toutes les choses négatives liées à ce mot. Il est très important de libérer les mots avant de libérer le corps ». Le conflit soudanais de 2023, a contraint cependant de nombreux cinéastes à s'exiler. Sara Suleiman vit actuellement à Londres. Mohamed Kordofani est à Bahrein, où il finalise l'écriture de son second film. Quant à Amjad Abou Alla, qui l'a produit, il est au Caire et travaille également sur deux nouveaux films. L'un d'eux se passe à Khartoum et se déroule sur une seule journée. Le nouveau cinéma soudanais est un cinéma d'espoir. L'espoir est son dénominateur commun. Au-delà des films, l'espoir est la devise la plus chère au peuple soudanais. À lire aussiL'émergence d'un cinéma soudanais depuis la Révolution [1/2]

You'd have to be very bad at interviews, or really just conversations, to not get something from Abel Ferrara, who's the perfect combination of endearing and pugnacious, amenable to ideas while unable to entertain even a hint of bullshit. He's especially verbose discussing Turn in the Wound, his most recent documentary, which premiered at last year's Berlinale and is now streaming on the Criterion Channel and parallels the effect of Russia's war on the citizens of Ukraine with, in a slightly opaque but ultimately wise manner, concerts conducted by Patti Smith. Like many of Ferrara's documentaries––Mulberry St., Chelsea on the Rocks, or Piazza Vittorio––it wrings pathos from a concern for people and the places they live. I was only too happy to talk with him about this film and its endless concerns. I also want to note that myself and Instagram sensation Rohmer Fits will be screening Éric Rohmer's A Summer's Tale on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday of this week's posting. Tickets are here and we hope to see you there: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/amnesiascope-a-tale-of-summer-tickets-1488838077769?aff=oddtdtcreator

Vom 27. Juni bis 6. Juli fand das Filmfest München 2025 in der bayerischen Hauptstadt statt. Gemeinsam mit der Journalistin Arabella Wintermayr sprechen wir in der aktuellen Podcastepisode über das renommierteste deutsche Filmfestival nach der Berlinale.

Show Notes: Tanya Selvaratnam shares her journey from high school to present day. She moved to New York after graduating and worked at Columbia Law School's Center for Chinese Legal Studies. She also assisted Anna Deavere Smith on her show “Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992” about the LA riots. Tanya went back to Harvard for graduate school, studying Chinese language and the history of law. An Adventure in Theatre  After her father passed away, she returned to New York, where she was working on the Beijing Women's Conference. Wandering the streets one day, she came across The Performing Garage with a poster on the wall for a show by the Wooster Group. On a whim, she slipped a note on the door offering to help in any capacity and was taken on as an intern. Before long, she was asked to come to rehearsals, and, despite having no intentions of becoming a performer, this led to her performing with the Wooster Group. She toured all over the world with them and with other companies like the Builders Association. On Becoming a Film Producer Currently, Tanya writes books and makes movies. She also advises various organizations, foundations, and corporations. She recently started advising the Open Future Lab in Vienna, Austria. She has also worked as a producer, which began when she worked at the Ms. Foundation for Women, on what was then called "Take Our Daughters to Work Day" as well as the Gloria awards. She also worked with Jed Weintrob, whom she had met at Harvard when she was in his production of “Dracula.” In the late 90s, Jed asked her to produce a movie he was writing at the time. It went on to premiere at Sundance and then the Berlinale in 2002. This led to more work as a producer, and Tanya is still currently producing.  The Connection between Event Organizer and Film Producer Tanya shares her experiences in organizing events since high school. While at Phillips Academy Andover, she was the head of the South Asian Students Association and served on the divestment committee during apartheid days. She organized events like readings of poetry, essays, and performances to raise awareness about activism and advocacy. After college, she also organized events for the youth tent at the Women's Conference in China, where she performed a piece called "Wet Sari Syndrome," which was a take on Bollywood movies. Tanya learned the craft of producing films directly from her friend and trusted colleague, Jed. She was willing to work hard, focusing on tasks such as finding locations, cleaning up the set, and figuring out what needed to happen to make the film come together. Tanya was able to tap into her resources and connections to make shoots possible and be attentive to Jed's vision. Dealing with Difficult Times The conversation turns to her experience with bullying and harassment, which she has faced in various situations. She deals with this by focusing on her tasks and work. Tanya goes to Portland to write and escape from these situations, as it provides a safe space to escape the pressures of life. She also talks about her two books, The Big Lie: Motherhood, Feminism, and the Reality of the Biological Clock, which grew out of her own struggles with fertility and Assume Nothing: A Story of Intimate Violence. When dealing with fertility issues, Tanya was shocked at the amount of misinformation surrounding fertility awareness. She talks about the problems with sex education in America and how the book changed when she was diagnosed with two types of cancer. In her second book, she shares her experiences of being entrapped in an abusive relationship with former Attorney General Eric Schneiderman. She explains why she was motivated to write the book and why she went into hiding after her story first became public. Working with Cultural Institutions Tanya has also worked on cultural events around the world, such as at the Rubell Museum in Miami, the Women's Conference in China, with Anna Deavere Smith and the Wooster Group. She has collaborated with major institutions and museums, such as the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Barbican in London, and Victoria Theatre in Singapore. She toured to 62 cities all over the world in a space of 12 years. She's also worked with the Sundance Film Festival and the New York Film Festival. She talks about The Federation, an organization that aims to show how art unites people and keeps cultural borders open. She recently worked with Carrie Mae Weems at the Torino book fair in Italy.  Co-directing and Producing a Documentary Short Tanya co-directed and produced a 13-minute documentary short called Love to the Max, which was acquired by the New Yorker magazine and recently nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Documentary Short. The film was inspired by the mother of Max Briggle, who was targeted for loving and supporting her trans kid. Tanya was inspired to make the film after Max Briggle's mother reached out to a women's listserv for help because she'd been approached by child protection services. Tanya has also been working with Catherine Gund for 17 years, producing a film called Paint Me a Road Out of Here, which is about the interconnected journeys of artists Faith Ringgold and Mary Baxter. She is also working on a new book called Love Me and Leave Me, which is about adventures through intimate pleasure and intimacy in many forms. Influential Harvard Professors and Courses Tanya initially thought she would study science at Harvard but found the large classes to be lacking in intimacy. She became interested in Chinese history and legal history, taking classes with visiting scholars and professors like Chang Weijen, William Alford, Professor Kuhn, and Professor Bol; Caroline Reeves, a graduate student, helped her decide what to explore for her thesis.

Friendly Professor Emerita at Columbia Journalism School.Julie Cohen (Director/Producer) is the Academy Award® nominated, Emmy winning director and producer of RBG (Magnolia, Participant, CNN Films, 2018) along with Betsy West.Her film My Name is Pauli Murray, also directed with West, premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival.Previous films she's directed include The Sturgeon Queens (7th Art Releasing; Berlinale, 2015; Best of the Fest, San Francisco Jewish Film Festival), and Ndiphilela Ukucula: I Live to Sing (2014 New York Emmy Award for Best Arts Program).Before she started making documentaries, Julie was a longtime staff producer for NBC News. She's been an enthusiastic amateur cook and baker ever since her parents bought her a Cuisinart for her bat mitzvah in the 1970s.Their current film is called JULIA. The film tells the remarkable story of the groundbreaking cookbook author and television superstar who forever changed the way Americans think about food, about television, and even about women.Using a treasure trove of never-before-seen archival video, personal still photos, first-person narratives, and cutting-edge, mouth-watering food cinematography, the documentary will trace Julia Child's surprising path, from her struggles to create and publish the revolutionary ‘instant' classic Mastering the Art of French Cooking (1961, Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group), to her empowering personal story of a woman in her 50s, finding her calling as an unlikely television sensation.This is the first feature-length documentary solely devoted to Julia Child, and will illuminate her casual upheaval of the male-dominated culinary and television worlds.Almost single-handedly, Julia Child upended the mythology that women could not hold their own at the highest levels of creative gastronomy, and that the only women Americans wanted to see on TV were young, submissive, and conventionally beautiful.JULIA is produced with the full cooperation of Julia Child's friends, family, and the Julia Child Foundation.  It follows the highly-acclaimed documentary, RBG, executive produced by CNN Films, directed and produced by West and Cohen through their company Storyville Films, and edited by Carla Gutierrez, who will also edit JULIA.The film comes out Nov 12 in-theatres NY/LA followed by nationwide expansion.In this episode we not only discuss the making of Julia and RBG but also cover how they approach documentary, the craft of tell stories and much more.Enjoy my conversation with Betsy West & Julie Cohen.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.

Filmkritik, Kunstpreis Berlin und auch den Sonderpreis beim Fernsehfilmpreis. Das ist ja allerhand. Nun ist die 1972 in West-Berlin geborene Nicolette Krebitz allerdings auch breit aufgestellt, als Schauspielerin, Regisseurin, Musikerin, Sprecherin und Drehbuchautorin. Durch Filme wie "Bandits" wurde sie für eine ganze Generation zur Projektionsfläche. Das ist dem Schauspielberuf zueigen, es hat Vor- und Nachteile, aber wie wird man das Bild, das andere von dir haben, bitte wieder los? Indem man sich immer wieder und immer weiter verändert. Das zumindest wäre eine Erklärung dafür, warum sich Nicolette Krebitz nie auszuruhen scheint. Aus dem Tanz ins Schauspiel, aus dem Schauspiel in die Regie, vom Bekannten hin zum Neuen. Vier sogenannte Longplayer hat sie als Regisseurin bislang vorgelegt, aktuell spielt sie neben Lars Eidinger eine Hauptrolle im Eröffnungsfilm der diesjährigen Berlinale unter der Regie von Tom Tykwer.

From breaking bones to trudging through snow – it is a Foley artist's role to reproduce the everyday sound effects that are added to film, TV and games. By using a variety of unconventional props and their own bodies, the goal is to create an authentic soundscape that will enhance our auditory experience. If the Foley goes unnoticed then they've done their job well! Datshiane Navanayagam speaks to two award winning Foley artists and asks what it's like to spend so much time, quite literally stepping into someone else's shoes. Caoimhe Doyle has over 25 years' experience creating Foley sound effects and footsteps for film, television and video games. She's been nominated three times for the MPSE Golden Reel Award for her work on Colm Bairéad's An Cailín Ciúin (The Quiet Girl), The Favourite, directed by Yorgos Lanthimos and David Cronenberg's Eastern Promises. In 2011 she won a MPSE Golden Reel Award and was nominated for an Emmy for her work on Game of Thrones: Season 1 and is a current MPSE nominee for work on Rich Peppiatt's Kneecap. Caoimhe collaborates with an all-female team out of The Foley Lab in a quiet part of County Wicklow in Ireland.Marita Sbeih is a Lebanese Foley artist and one of only a handful working in the Middle East. Since 2018, she has been the dedicated Foley Artist at DB Studios in Beirut, which provides audio post-production for films, documentaries, and art productions from around the globe. Pursuing a career as a Foley artist in a country with many unique challenges has been far from easy, but Marita has built an impressive list of credits for Foley and footsteps in some of the Arab world's more distinguished art-house and indie productions, as well as international projects. Most recently, she worked on Hot Milk, a UK film directed by Rebecca Lenkiewicz, which was selected for the official competition at the 75th Berlinale (2025).Produced by Hannah Dean (Image: (L) Caoimhe Doyle courtesy Caoimhe Doyle.

Ep. 305: K.J. Relth-Miller on Berlinale Classics: Tenderness of the Wolves, Solo Sunny, Spare Parts, Don't Cheat, Darling! Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. This week I welcome back K.J. Relth-Miller, director of film programs at the Academy Museum in Los Angeles, to hear about her latest travels through new restorations and revivals. As we did last year, we explore this year's Berlinale Classics, a section at the Berlin film festival devoted to restorations and revivals. Our focus is “Wild, Weird, Bloody!”—a series devoted to German genre cinema in all its splendor. We discuss films ranging from horror to musical to crime drama, including: Tenderness of the Wolves (directed by Ulli Lommel), Solo Sunny (Konrad Wolf), Spare Parts (Rainer Erler), Don't Cheat, Darling! (Joachim Hasler), and Hat Off When You Kiss (Rolf Losansky). Plus: a new Hitchcock restoration, The Paradine Case.

Ep. 300: Julia Loktev on My Undesirable Friends: Part I—Last Air in Moscow Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. Last October I interviewed the filmmaker Julia Loktev during the New York Film Festival about her latest work, My Undesirable Friends: Part I—Last Air in Moscow. This week her film has its international premiere at the Berlinale. It's about independent journalists in Russia before and after the start of Putin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. When I spoke to Loktev last fall, I asked about how skillfully the five-hour-plus movie is put together, and she in turn explained how the situation in Russia grew even worse with the invasion. Since then, Trump's election in the United States and his radical re-shaping of the government have created an additional context for the film, in which Loktev's descriptions of Russia's strategies of suppression and deception start to sound even more like a frightening warning.
