Goethe- BLOCKBUSTERS are back!

In addition to our yearly festival of new German films German Currents (look forward to this fall !), we are bringing back BLOCKBUSTERS showcasing favorites of ours, which have not seen the exposure they deserve.

From the hilariously funny "Wer frueher stirbt..." to David Kross’ (The Reader) debut film "Knallhart" to Christian Petzold’s (The State I’m In, Wolfsburg) latest film "Yella", this year’s BLOCKBUSTERS, once again, present an exquisite mix of genres, high entertainment value and “ an invaluable samplers of some of the most innovative and thoughtful cinema coming out of Europe today”
