Posted on 04. Feb, 2010 by Mrs Moorhouse in Deutsch
Parallel to Nottingham Contemporary’s new exhibition on communism, The Future under Communism, Broadway Cinema is hosting a few special screenings to coincide.
The Edukators (in German, Die fetten Jahre sind vorbei) is showing on Thursday 11th February at 7.45pm. It is described by the Los Angeles Times as “a sweet, funny and gripping romantic adventure, it’s about the limitations of political activism in this day and age, and what happens when your girlfriend and your best friend fall in love.”
In the Dust of the Stars (in German, Im Staub der Sterne) is showing on Friday 12th Feburary at 10.30pm. Broadway describes this film as “an East German spacemen-and- Socialism gem replete with space age costumes, liberal social mores, and a socialist utopian undercurrent.”
The Lives of Others (in German, Das Leben der Anderen) is showing in half term on Monday 15th February at 5.30pm. Winner of the 2007 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, Broadway describes this film as “a gripping political Communist-era thriller and human drama.”
