festival of german films

Summer in Berlin

Friday 21 April - Sunday 30 April 2006

The fifth Festival of German Films takes you on a journey to discover the world of contemporary German Cinema.

Enjoy an eclectic and versatile mix comedies, biographies, documentaries - many of which were featured at this year's Berlin Film Festival. The common theme of 'Leaps in Time' with a strong female presence, special Festival attractions such as visiting guest stars, panel discussions and school class viewings, make this an outstanding Film Festival.

Highlights include Summer in Berlin, the variation of the Brothers Grimm fairytale The Fisherman and his Wife, breezy comedy-drama-musical Almost Heaven, the Oscar nominated Sophie Scholl: The Final Days, and love story The White Masai.

Full program details available at www.goethe.de/ins/au/prj/ff06/enindex.htm

Presented by the Goethe-Insitut Australia in cooperation with German Films.
