Arthur & Diana

Arthur & Diana are brother and sister. The two of them share custody of their father’s old Renault. Still registered in France, the car needs its long expired vehicle inspection certificate to be renewed, so the siblings embark on an absurd trip from Berlin to Paris. For Lupo, Diana’s two-year-old son, this adventure feels like an exciting family holiday. After an encounter with the police, an antagonistic stop at their mother’s place, an overly sensual party, a flat tire, a funeral, and repeated tumultuous car conversations, they will end up all the way down in Italy, with a few more friends and hopes than they had left with. “Arthur&Diana” is an auto fictional experiment, a transeuropean road movie where documentary and constructed reality mingle to build an alternative world.

As if Mother Cried that Night

Sirvan and Hoda, an Iranian couple whose asylum application was rejected in Germany, live in a refugee camp in Berlin. In order to obtain a residence permit, they decide that Hoda should become pregnant by a German man, in order to give both of them the right to stay in Germany. As we pursue this unconventional path of getting a permission to stay, we lose ourselves in the labyrinth of German bureaucracy and remain there with no solution and with the bitter feeling that current laws and structures are deeply qustionable.

Mirage

Sophie is spending a day at the public swimming pool with her family. She is confronted by a shrilling whistle in the large hall and the sight of her mother floating breathless manifests itself as a reality. Soon after, she realizes the false resemblance between the unknown swimmer and her mother. She tries to maintain a sense of normalcy afterwards.

This is the last time I’m doing this

Matthias and Cosmo go to an extended family party and have something to say to his mother Gunde. But next to the hustle and bustle, encroaching aunts and Gunde's dominant behaviour, it doesn't come to that. Instead, they are asked to deliver a cake to family friends on their way home. Shortly thereafter, they are faced with closed doors. While they wait and night falls, they playfully try to get closer. But their unspoken fears and opposing ideas of family and the future collide.

Torpor

With the death of her brother, Asra loses access to the world around her and to her actual sense of self. Lost, Asra drifts aimlessly around the mundane remnants of her life. Only the encounter with her sister-in-law opens the hermetical seal against the outside world. The two women become each other's gateway to a past in which they come together to grieve. Together, they can take a step out of the obliterative isolation that afflicts body and mind in mourning.
