But this summer brings a change: Tilda receives a promising job offer for a doctorate in Berlin. Viktor also turns up, who, like her, always swims 22 laps in the swimming pool. When Tilda begins to believe that everything could be better, the situation at home spirals out of control.

FORMEN MODERNER ERSCHÖPFUNG
von Sascha Hilpert
Die Erzählungen zweier Menschen, die eine Krise durchleben, treffen auf die Realität im letzten Sanatorium seiner Art.¿Seit über hundert Jahren kommen Menschen an diesen Ort, die auf Heilung hoffen. So auch Nina und Henri, beide in der Lebensmitte, ausgebrannt und aus verschiedenen Milieus. Zwischen Speisesaal, Liegekur und Therapie kreuzen sich ihre Wege, in einer Zeit des Ringens um den eigenen Seelenfrieden. Das Haus schneit ein, alles wird langsam und leise. Geister und Geschichten aus den langen Korridoren werden zu Begleitern ihrer Tage. Gleichzeitig forscht eine Historikerin im Hausarchiv nach Dokumenten aus der Frühzeit der Kuranstalt. Das Sanatorium Barner wird zum Schauplatz für eine Archäologie der Erschöpfung.
Initiative Neuköllner Buchläden gegen rechts
nitiative Neuköllner Buchläden gegen rechts: DAS DEUTSCHE VOLK + Diskussion

IRMA TROTTA PRESENTA
PERDUE
Sometimes a pregnancy begins with two beating hearts. But not both always make it to birth.
This phenomenon, known as the vanishing twin syndrome, often remains invisible: the mother may not notice it, medicine barely records it, yet the surviving twin carries it within for a lifetime.
The documentary film Per Due, written by Elisabetta Giuseppina Zecca and directed by Stefano Filippi, tells this silent experience with delicacy and depth. It is a journey through images, testimonies, and reflections that touches on themes of prenatal memory, invisible bonds, unspoken grief, and the possibility of transforming all this into awareness and reconciliation.
Inspired by the book The Vanishing Twin Syndrome by Alfred and Bettina Austermann, therapists who have worked on this subject for many years, the film opens a space of listening and recognition that concerns far more people than one might think.
Because behind a feeling of emptiness, an unexplained nostalgia, or difficulties in relationships, there may be the trace of a sibling who was never born.
"Per Due" is not only a film to watch: it is an experience to live together.
European Arthouse Cinema Day
DIAMANTI di Ferzan Özpetek
von Ferzan Özpetek
A film director gathers his favorite actresses, those he worked with and those he loved. He wants to make a film about women but he doesn’t reveal much: he observes them, takes cue, until his imaginary throw them into another era, in a past where the noise of the sewing machines fills a workplace handled and populated by women, where men have minor and marginal roles and cinema can be told from another point of view: the one of costume. Between loneliness, passions, anxieties, heartbreaking absence and unbreakable bonds, reality and fiction permeate, as well as the lives of the actresses and those of the characters, the competition and the sisterhood, the visible and the invisible.
European Arthouse Cinema Day
