Film Series
Summer at last! At the Goethe-Institut, that means unpacking the big screen, hanging it outside in the backyard, and enjoying entertaining German films together on mild summer evenings. Every Wednesday at 8:00 PM in August.
This year, love is in the air at the Goethe backyard- our summer films all deal with the ups and downs of romantic relationships: Commitment Phobia features Tim, a die-hard single who suddenly finds himself in dating-hell. In Simon Verhoeven’s Nightlife Milo's romantic encounter with the woman of his dreams turns into a crazy chase through a Berlin night. Franky of Franky Five Star has never allowed herself to fall in love because she is too busy dealing with her inner chaos. But when she meets Hassim, called Hasi, things get out of control. Beyond the Blue Border, the final film in the series, features childhood friends Hanna and Andreas trying to flee together from East Germany by swimming across the Baltic Sea. Happy ending or not, enjoy a different take on love in these German rom-coms!
As always: Admission is free. The films will be shown in German with English subtitles. We are looking forward to welcoming you at our open air theatre in the Goethe-Institut's backyard at 170 Back Street. Feel free to bring friends, snacks, and beverages.
