Night Shapes / 2019 Autumn Showcase
Night Shapes (Nachtgestalten)
Goethe-Institut, San Francisco
Tribute to Andreas Dresen and 20th Anniversary Screening
111 min. Germany (1999). Digital Projection. German w/ English subtitles
Winner of the 1999 German Film Award for Best Film (Silver) and the 1999 Berlinale Silver Bear for Best Actor Michael Gwisdek. The Pope may be visiting the city, but the night is anything but heavenly for some Berlin people. Hanna is one of the city's homeless people; by chance, she happens to find DM 100 and plans to spend the money on a night in a hotel with her friend. Farmer Jochen is visiting Berlin and looking for female company. He finally lands up with Patty, a teenage prostitute. Peschke is a totally burned-out businessman on his way to pick up a foreign visitor at the airport, but fails to find him. They are all "nightbeings" - "Nachtgestalten" - in search of a little good luck, all on an amusing, but also devastating trip through Berlin in the nineties.
Director/Screenwriter: Andreas Dresen Starring: Michael Gwisdek, Myriam Abbas, Dominique Horwitz, Ade Sapara, Oliver Breite, Susanne Bormann
