Am Abschlussabend der Woche der Kritik treten zwei Jugendfilme miteinander in Dialog, die durch ihre Stilentscheidungen Kontraste bilden. Caroline Pitzens FREIZEIT ODER: DAS GEGENTEIL VON NICHTSTUN präsentieren wir in unserem Programm als Weltpremiere. Sie und ihr Kameramann Markus Koob („Selbstkritik eines bürgerlichen Hundes“) erforschen darin mit neugierigen Blicken, wie junge Berliner Aktivist*innen politische Kämpfe besprechen, ihr Handeln reflektieren und versuchen, sich die nächsten Schritte für die Gesellschaft auszumalen. Ein Szenario, in dem die Freizeit ohne die Frage nach Freiheit nicht auskommt. Ihr Film trifft auf A MUSEUM SLEEPS von Camille de Chenay, dessen Uraufführung der Filmkritiker Cyril Neyrat beim FID Marseille Festival euphorisch kommentierte: „The emergence of a new fiction film director is not a common thing anymore in France, and it hasn’t been in a long time. So, what exactly is a fiction film director? It is someone who has an infectious thirst for designing frames, for shaping lights and colours, someone who enjoys linking sequences, making jump cuts or wiping from one shot to the next. Their films make apparent that cinema is painting expanded by music – through a game of timbres, the modulation of speed and tones, the precision of rhythms.“ Ein Programm mit zwei Debütfilmen, eine Debatte über die neuen Stimmen des Kinos und die Rhetorik des Films.

On the closing night of Critics’ Week, two youth films will engage in dialogue with each other, offering a contrast through their stylistic choices. We are excited to present the World Premiere of Caroline Pitzen's FREIZEIT OR: THE OPPOSITE OF DOING NOTHING. Pitzen and her DoP Markus Koob ("Selbstkritik eines bürgerlichen Hundes") explore with curious glances how young Berlin activists discuss political struggles, reflect on their actions, and try to imagine the next steps for society. It's a scenario in which free time cannot be disentangled from the question of freedom. Their film meets A MUSEUM SLEEPS by Camille de Chenay, which film critic Cyril Neyrat enthusiastically commended at the 2020 FIDMarseille festival: "The emergence of a new fiction film director is not a common thing anymore in France, and it hasn't been in a long time. So, what exactly is a fiction film director? It is someone who has an infectious thirst for designing frames, for shaping lights and colors, someone who enjoys linking sequences, making jump cuts or wiping from one shot to the next. Their films make apparent that cinema is painting expanded by music – through a game of timbres, the modulation of speed and tones, the precision of rhythms." A program of two debut films, with a debate on the new voices of cinema and the protean rhetoric of film.
