DOGS BARKING AT BIRDS (CÃES QUE LADRAM AOS PÁSSAROS)
Dir. + DOP: Leonor Teles, C: Vicente Gil, Salvador Gil, Maria Gil, PT 2019, 20 min., Portuguese OwEs – German Premiere
His golden curls brush over the image, linking Lisbon’s old town with the beach, the folding of laundry with an apartment visit. Gentrification haunts the dialogues. Fear and tradition, too. Youth’s only claim is the instant.
MY PUNCH-DRUNK BOXER (PANSORI BOXER)
Dir.: Jung Hyuk-ki, C: Um Tae-gu, Lee Hye-ri, Kim Hie-won, DOP: Kang Min-woo, KOR 2019, 115 min., Korean OwEs – International Premiere
Can you step back into the ring at the age of 29? In his cheerful feature debut, South Korean director Jung Hyuk-ki integrates the classic trope of a fight against all odds within a vibrant tale of a globally neglected province.
Organized in cooperation with the Cultural Department of the Embassy of the Republic of Korea
After the screening
Debate: CRITICS’ DEBATE
After the screenings, we invite two people to a playful war of ideas. They shouldn’t find common ground, they should bring forth their disagreements. How differently can the films be regarded, understood, interpreted?
Guests: Xanaé Bove, Neil Young
In the presence of: Jung Hyuk-ki, Leonor Teles
Moderated by Dennis Vetter
Re-Run: Sunday, 1st March 2020 – 12.15 pm
