MARCUS RUDOLF AXT - Director of the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra
Contempt - Le Mépris [OmU]
"Jean-Luc Godard's Contempt is a milestone in film history: a visually opulent drama about love and betrayal unfolds between Cinecittà and the Villa Malaparte on Capri. With old master Fritz Lang playing himself, it is also a film about making films itself."
Wed., 15.10.2025 | 18:30 hrs
MÄC HÄRDER - cabaret artist
To be or not to be [German version]
"'To Be or Not to Be' by Ernst Lubitsch combines several genres at once - from thriller to drama to pure slapstick. A mixture of political wit, outrageous chutzpah and a gleeful reckoning with the cult of the Führer. Enjoy a bitingly evil anti-Nazi satire."
Wed., 19.11.2025 | 18:30 hrs
HEIDI LEHNERT - actress and director
The Fall [OmU]
"The Dadaist Hugo Ball said: 'The image is the mother of the word. Language that fails to evoke images remains a salad of letters. For me as a theater person, images, symbols and metaphors are always an important part of an artistic work - on stage or on screen. Director Tarsem Singh has created a masterpiece of breathtaking imagery here. This extravagant visual orgy pays homage to fairy tales and the art of storytelling, blends reality and fantasy, celebrates beauty and melancholy and even leaves room for a dose of tongue-in-cheek humor. To be able to see the film again on the big screen is a wonderful gift."
Wed., 17.12.2025 | 18:30 hrs
NORA GOMRINGER - Lyricist
Mrs. Parker and her dissolute circle [OmU]
"I am very proud to say that Dorothy Parker, salon lioness, Oscar-nominated, sharp-tongued poet, icon and I brought Diana and Gerrit together. That was around the year 2000 and has enriched Bamberg ever since, provided endless popcorn, decisive encounters with films and people, made the city better. No doubt about it."
