8:30 PM - Screening of the film LIEBE ANGST 81' Minutes

LIEBE ANGST lets us feel in an almost physical way, how trauma is passed on throughout generations, inscribing itself in the bodies and souls of subsequent family members and determining their lives. How does one find a way out of family fate to a life of one's own?

Directors Note

Kim, Tom, Lore. Three ways to cope with the monstrosity of our history. Lore, who survived by not remembering - Tom, whom the burden of history cost his life - Kim, who confronts the memory she suffers from. Life in all its dimensions.

About

Après la gloire (After Glory) addresses the descendants of the survivors and questions the trace and weight of blood and terror, asking the question of how much the shadow of history can haunt the future and whether it can go so far as to turn victims into persecutor.

Guest Artist

Sandra Prechtel

Born in Munich, Prechtel has been living in Berlin since 1991, the very city her mother’s family escaped from during the WW2 bombings to Bavaria.

In her studies and creative research, she focuses on one subject: how the war, the destruction, and the terror of the Nazi regime affected subsequent generations, including herself, who cannot escape this heritage.

Graduated in Comparative Literature, Film Studies, and Political Science, Prechtel has written for newspapers, worked for radio and TV, and authored a book.

She is also the author and director of several short and long documentaries that have been released on TV, in cinemas, and at international film festivals.

TRILOGY OF GLORY

In a celebration of colors, sounds, and movements, through a series of 156 images in homage to Max Ernst, Pablo Picasso, and Paul Klee, Pascal Nordmann stages the memory of disaster to offer it, in a gesture of defiance, to the proponents of eternal recurrence, national glories, and misguided old beliefs.

The three parts represent three facets of a work on the same event of the 20th century: the German genocide perpetrated against European Jews. (1st part - see HERE)

Each facet, built around a central point, includes an exhibition of 52 images, a short film of 18 minutes, and a 64-page booklet from Editions de la Fondation Auer, containing text and images.

Intentions

"It's not about showing the unspeakable or making a documentary. Do not expect to find images of the unspeakable. The aim is to mourn, to meditate, even to pray, everything that, in a work of memory, accompanies the memory to make it bearable or at least to make it seem as if it could be bearable."

Pascal Nordmann
