FEATURE FILM
BORROWED WHITE (GEBORGTES WEIß)
A farmhouse on a hill – it used to be imposing, but now its paint is peeling. But nonetheless it points to wealthy landlords – not owing to money, but rather academic excellence, one could assume. Not showing off social status, but inheriting it. Rudolf’s (62) cave, in which Marta (44) and Nathan (5) live, has become their home. The academic loves his family, which unexpectedly ran into his arms. The three of them are an intimate team. Until Valmir (28) bursts their bubble.
The Albanian seasonal worker doesn’t speak much. And yet he is very direct and demanding – knowing that others took what they wanted as well…
A neo-noir film about past sins and the yearning for change.

DOCUMENTARY FILM
DARK EDEN - THE NIGHTMARE OF OIL
On a journey for an answer to the question, "How high is the price for a better life?", the director explores Fort McMurray in the far north of Canada, home of the largest industrial project and the third largest oil reserve on the planet. People from all over the world come here to earn sky-high salaries at the sacrifice of the environment. Film and reality collide as the director finds herself in her own personal nightmare.
Andreas Köhler was awarded a Grimme Award for his work on Dark Eden.
