Filmmuseum

Filmmuseum Berlin

The Filmhaus, in the Sony Centre at Potsdamer Platz houses Berlin’s Film and Television Museum and the Deutsche Kinematek (German Film Archive). Ideally located a few minutes walk from Marlene Dietrich Platz where Berlin’s International Film Festival takes place every year in February, the Filmmuseum is a full immersion, multimedia experience into German film history. 

The permanent exhibition “Film” provides a step by-step guide across the milestones of the cinematic era and the interaction between the moving image and society. 

13 halls packed with over 1,000 exhibits ranging from film scripts to costumes and props; depict the historical and technological development of film-making from the silent-era to the special effects of the digital age as well as the careers of film directors who made history with their films. Highlights are the classic German expressionist masterpieces such as ‘The Cabinet of Dr Caligari’ and Fritz Lang’s ‘Metropolis’. 

Other milestones covered are the culture boom of the Weimar Republic days from 1918-1933, the transformation of culture into ideological propaganda during the Nazi period with masterpieces such as Leni Riefenstahl’s ‘Olympia’ and the exodus of German film talent to Hollywood after 1933. 

A special section is devoted to the greatest German diva - Marlene Dietrich - with a number of her personal objects and memorabilia on show. A section is also dedicated to Science fiction as a genre and film animation. [ more ]

"Default Lanscapes"

29/9 - 7/11/2012 

For three years now anger has been alternating with grief, shame with fear, while the horror of imminent disaster leaves us empty, staring into a void. 

For the past three years all conversations seem to have revolved around numbers and percentages, financial terms, acronyms in foreign languages, safe and unsafe liabilities, sustainable and unsustainable conditions, deals, accords, treaties, and so on. 

Each and every one of us watches events unfold, silently, in front of the TV screen. Yet, every day, even if for just a moment, something breaks through the harsh skin created by the fall and manages to penetrate deeper, bringing a little warmth to the day. 

It is something different for each of us: a friend’s concern, a pat on the back at work, solidarity and affection between partners. We long for intimacy in our private world, we take courage from our common destiny. This is my country. I intend to stay.  [ source ]
