Black Panther – The story of Emilie and Jacob

Emilie (26) meets her brother Jacob (22) again after many years. Sharing the loss of their parents is not the whole story – they also share a secret. The house she inherited has to be sold to pay off debts. As the two revel in the unaccustomed freedom of the mountain landscape and its broad vistas, that thought slips into the background. Yet the more Emilie ignores reality and represses her feelings for Jacob, the more he pushes for a decision on a future together. Can the siblings really share a life with this love that cannot speak its name?

Arlette. Courage is a muscle.

A journey from Africa to Berlin turns into an unexpected journey from childhood to adulthood. The film centres around Arlette, a 15-year old girl from the Central African Republic who suffered severe injuries during the last war. In Berlin a surgery frees her from her year-long pain. This changes her both physically and mentally: suddenly Arlette is in her puberty. But then war breaks out again in her homeland. What was planned to be a short stay in Berlin turns into a journey without a foreseeable end. Alrette is forced to grow up and take her own decisions about her future. Stranded in Berlin the young girl faces the challenges of a foreign culture and a language she doesn't speak. This film is a long-term observation – told resolutely from the perspective of a young girl from the Central African Republic. And the viewer gets to see our everyday life through the genuine and honest eyes of Arlette.
