Vier Könige, 2015, Theresa von Eltz 
2 PM


For the four teenagers Alex, Fedja, Timo and Lara, the upcoming Christmas is not a time of joy and hope: After increasingly massive escalating family conflicts, they spend the holidays not in the circle of their relatives, but in the youth psychiatric ward. Here, the four very different young people not only have to adjust to each other, but also deal with their problems in grueling therapy sessions. But thanks to the unconventional psychiatrist Dr. Wolf, the sessions develop differently than expected - and the four teenagers experienced a completely surprising Christmas that they will never forget. 


Nosferatu - Phantom der Nacht, 1979, Werner Herzog 
4 PM


Werner Herzog's remake of F.W. Murnau's "Nosferatu" from 1921: Jonathan Harker travels from Wismar to Transylvania to negotiate the purchase of a house with Count Dracula. He spends the night in Dracula's castle and the next morning discovers small red marks on his neck: Dracula is a vampire. Harker flees the castle, but Dracula is already on his way to Wismar. There, a ship of the dead arrives: Dracula has killed the crew and is now spreading the plague in the small town. Harker's wife Lucy sacrifices herself and gives herself to Dracula. In the first rays of sunlight of the new morning, the vampire dissolves. But Jonathan Harker has become a new kind of vampire and rides off into the daylight to spread the plague across the world.
