For real?!

 

Selects #2

1 Nov 22–14 Oct 23

“For real?!” is the theme of our current selection of documentaries available to stream. How real and true-to-life is this genre of film? What does the camera reveal about the person behind it? Who gets to speak? And about whom? Nine outstanding films present the range of the documentary and explore the informative value of images and documents. A showcase of German (film-making) history.
