Signs of Life
Cinematography
Documentary about the vanishing traces of WWII and the Holocaust in contemporary Berlin, and about individuals who keep the memory alive despite of that in a very personal way. Like the group of female friends who tend the garden of the Liebermann estate, or the Shoah survivor who has always kept the lights on in her home since she evaded Nazi persecution by hiding in a dark bunker. Filmmaker Alexa Karolinski talks to historians and Berlin Jews, and her film connects a poetic portrait of the city with the memory of a collective Jewish trauma that not only affects the generation of survivors.

Lamento
Cinematography
Magdalena is struggling to cope with a major crisis in her life: some time ago her daughter Sara committed suicide. Magdalena finds herself consumed by a grief she cannot overcome. Although the event has shattered her world, she nonetheless manages to ‘function’ smoothly on a daily basis – whether this involves trying to sell Sara’s dog Truls, picking up her second daughter’s son from his piano lesson, eating with the family of an evening, attending a session with a spiritualist or going to a bar. These are all things she would have done anyway, and a strict routine helps prevent her pain from rising to the surface. Only when Sara’s former boyfriend visits does she begin to see a path through all her denial, speechlessness and feelings of guilt.
