Magda Goebbels
In 1938, Joseph Goebbels is at the height of his power for the time being, while Hitler is celebrated by the people. The dictator now marches resolutely towards war. However, the propaganda has put a lot of strain on the subject of peace, so that a sudden change of direction is not possible so quickly. Goebbels' work comes under heavy criticism from his Führer and he does everything he can to regain his reputation and fuel the population's enthusiasm for the war. He triggers the pogrom of 9 November 1938 and plans anti-Semitic films, in the realization of which Hitler intervenes in every detail. An almost perfect and controlled staging succeeds, especially in connection with large mass events. The highlight was the victory parade after the capitulation of France, which was planned down to the last detail. In 1941, Goebbels is back on top with Hitler. With the "Russian campaign", the war really begins for Hitler and the mass murders reach their climax.

Имя скрипача Никколо Паганини еще при жизни стало легендой. Что не удивительно, ведь его непревзойденный талант покорил сначала Париж, потом всю Европу, а затем и весь мир. Сама личность Паганини, окутанная ореолом мистики и таинственности, неизбежно привела к возникновению самых разнообразных слухов. Среди них была и уверенность в том, что он продал душу дьяволу, чтобы обрести свой талант. Слава и развращает, и мучает музыканта, вино и опиум приносят лишь временное утешение, и все больше ощущается странная всепоглощающая пустота… Во время гастролей в Лондоне Паганини встречает девушку с ангельским голосом и чистой душой, которую, казалось, ему было суждено повстречать.

Gentrifikation
Eleven moving dates, eight friends: Philipp, Wiebke, Jessica, Maria, Swantje, Michael, Thomas, Dina – all in their twenties and mutually lonesome. And always searching: For a new city, a new job, an own apartment, a new, or even an old love. The search is never-ending, and so they repeatedly find themselves at a ritual gathering: someone moving. Boxes are shifted from one side of Berlin to the other, or the length and breadth of Germany, from one abode to the next as one life is exchanged for another. In 3 ZIMMER/KÜCHE/BAD, director Dietrich Brüggemann portrays existences in which relationships, social networks and backdrops are in a constant state of flux; where best friends are the only, and therefore the most valuable constant. Humorous sketches of the self-conception of a generation for whom moving has become the symbol of a life on the go.

Mareike
An independent tragicomedy, Run If You Can is the debut feature for director Brüggemann who, along with his sister, also wrote the compelling screenplay. Forced to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair, Ben is deeply desperate, despite his humor and vivaciousness. When he meets Christian, his new assistant, Ben treats him like every other helper he’s had. Things suddenly change when Christian meets Annika, “the cello player” whom Ben has been observing from his window for years. The three become close friends, putting Annika in the middle of an emotional, and somehow dangerous, ménage à trois. While conquering Annika is nothing very serious for career-focused Christian, Ben’s love for Annika reminds him of his past and forces him to face his most remote fears. A character-driven story, Run If You Can owes much of its power to the actors’ performances, especially Robert Gwisdek’s outstanding interpretation of Ben.

Фильм рассказывает историю Йоханна Реттенбергера, бегуна-марафонца, который в перерывах между тренировками обчищал банки от излишек наличности, делая это в маске Рональда Рейгана. История основана на реальных событиях и могла бы стать основной сценария какого-нибудь голливудского боевика, но у австрийцев это экзистенциальная драма. Герой в процессе своих пробежек растерял почти все социальные связи и стал похож на золотую призовую статуэтку: ни эмоций, ни желаний, ни чувств, только потребность в движении. Банки он грабит тоже чисто из спортивного интереса, деньги ему особо ни к чему... Участник основной конкурсной программы Берлинале-2010.
