Po-lin. Shards of memory
Editor
Unique archives show a world that no longer exists: pre-war Poland in which two cultures: Jewish and Polish, coexisted wall-in-wall; cottage in a cottage; town next to town. "Po-lin" - meaning "we will stop here" in Yiddish - does not deny the painful past. It only shows that there was something more next to them. Worth remembering and - perhaps - reconstruction.
Kurt - You Shall Laugh

Free from all pressure he has constructed a world of himself in the clinic. A survivor, musican and painter in the streets of East-Berlin. The Film questions the conventional concepts of „normaly“.
Eastern Landscape
Editor
Articles of former East Germany from household items to flags are thrown away at a garbage dump outside of East Berlin, serving as a reminder of a state that no longer exists. In this gesture of breaking ties with the past, the film captures the dumping ground as the last burial site of a society and the absurdity of time and existence.
