Presale: Killers of the Flower Moon

Followed by a panel with Margarete von Trotta (director), Ronald Zehrfeld (Max Frisch), Frauke Meyer-Gosau (literary scholar, author & editor), Ines Kappert (director Gunda-Werner-Institut). With a greeting by Dr. Beate von Miquel (German Women's Council) and moderated by Caroline Rosales (author).

After Rosa Luxemburg and Hanna Arendt, Margarete von Trotta once again dedicates herself to a female light figure of the 20th century: unchanged, the Austrian poet Ingeborg Bachmann is considered one of the most important female lyricists. Based on her own screenplay, Trotta traces the toxic relationship between Ingeborg Bachmann and the Swiss literary figure Max Frisch in a film that is as elegant as it is stirring, made at great effort in six countries. The film celebrated its world premiere in competition at this year's 73rd Berlin International Festival.

A poetically told film, with world-class water shots and the best surfers in Morocco!

Peppa's Cinema Party 

The legislative period begins with a surprise. Ursula von der Leyen becomes Commission President. Martin Sonneborn describes how this came about and introduces the strangest Commissioners. And then politics is made: The Green Deal is negotiated in Brussels (and Strasbourg), positions are taken in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and the digital surveillance of citizens in the EU is re-regulated. Hundreds of decisions that will become part of everyday life for millions of EU citizens - and where you occasionally need a great deal of humor to avoid hitting the bottle in the MEP bar. Or to ask the question of meaning. Fortunately, Martin Sonneborn has good ideas for moving Europe in the right direction. His suggestion: EU downsizing instead of EU enlargement, Nobel prizes for Assange, don't leave Europe to the Leyen ...

The book is a journey into a parallel universe. It takes readers to the offices of the EU administration, to the Hellmarsh high-security prison in London and even to East Germany (with Gregor Gysi). It is informative, shocking and funny.


Martin Sonneborn "Herr Sonneborn bleibt in Brüssel"
