DVD Screening & Discussion "Tour de Force"

Deutscher Filmklub

Tour de Force movie poster ©Majestic Filmverleih The third Deutscher Filmklub of this year is an entertaining bicycle road movie from 2014 by Christian Zübert: “Tour de Force” (Hin und Weg). The main character Hannes suffers from a terminal illness and wants his friends to accompany him on a bike trip to Belgium, where he plans to end his suffering. In a humorous but at the same time sensitive manner, Zübert addresses the controversial topic of euthanasia.

The film will be shown in German with English subtitles. Afterwards there will be a moderated discussion.
