Berlin & Beyond Honolulu will open with
The Whole Shebang, the fabulous new
comedy from veteran director, Doris Dörrie.
The postmodern Austrian western, The
Dark Valley, and the boundary-breaking, Swiss gay love story, The Circle, are
their home countries’ Oscar bids. Katja
von Garnier’s equestrian tale, Windstorm,
and the slick period action of Christian
Alvart’s thrilling Banklady highlight the
recent quality of Germany’s pop output.
Walter Steffen’s Munich in India reveals
the glory and magic of the East during
one of the Western World’s darkest days.
Diplomacy, the engaging new work of
political intrigue from living legend
Volker Schlöndorff, will close the series,
eloquently.

1967, the Summer of Love. Torremolinos in Southern
Spain is a hotbed of hippy culture, home to free-spirited
Ingrid (Hannelore Elsner), and her daughter, Apple
(Nadja Uhl). Thirty years later, Apple prefers to forget
her upbringing. Unlucky in love and consoled only by
her paralytic dog, she’s still looking for an ever-elusive
stability. Her mother, meanwhile, lives in her rebellious
past, but when she returns to Torremolinos to rejuvenate
following a hip replacement, it is not the paradise she
remembers. High-rise hotels and sunburned tourists
abound, and a cross-dressing lounge singer forces her
to reflect differently on her memories. When Apple
decides to join her mother, revelations ensue and things
get complicated! Absolutely Fabulous by way of Shirley
Valentine, The Whole Shebang is a thoughtful comedy
for mothers, daughters, fathers, sons, friends and
lovers everywhere. —Abbie Algar

Der Kreis
As the Nazis are seizing power in Germany and prepare
to lead Europe into the terror of World War II, FritzMunich is traveling the Indian subcontinent between
1932 and 1937, and quickly becoming the only German
court painter of the Maharajas. Konstantin Fritz, the
painter’s grandson, searches for clues of Fritz-Munich’s
paintings in India and of his adventures, seeking to find
the truth beyond the stories about India that he heard
as a child. Accompanied by his grandfather’s historical
diaries and his unique historical 16mm film shoots,
the protagonist follows Fritz-Munich’s former travels,
through India of today. It is the story about the rise and
the fall of an unknown but nevertheless extraordinary
man. It tells also about German and Indian history in
the first half of the 20th century. It is about the lavish
life in the palaces of the Maharajas and the British
colonial rulers, the time after independence, and
simultaneously, an insight into contemporary India a huge, vibrant, colorful and diverse country.

2nd Berlin & Beyond Honolulu - 2014
In the 1950s, Switzerland is the only nation in Europe
where homosexuality is not a crime. The Circle, the
continent’s only open “homophile” society, has formed
in Zurich. The society’s magazine gains subscribers
throughout Europe, and their masked balls become
the events for the gays of Switzerland, Germany, and
beyond. At a ball, Ernst, a reserved schoolteacher, is
awestruck by glamorous Röbi, who sings onstage:
thus begins a passion that lasts two lifetimes. A crime
wave rocks the Circle and anti-gay backlash follows,
but Ernst and Röbi’s love blooms through it all. A
unique hybrid of documentary and fiction filmmaking,
director Stefan Haupt weaves in interviews throughout,
most of all with Röbi and Ernst, who continue to break
boundaries today. —Martin Schwartz

Director Christian Alvart
Banklady
Windstorm
The latest from Germany’s Hollywood director, Christian
Alvart (Antibodies, Pandorum), Banklady tells the
story of Gisela Werler (Nadeshda Brennicke), a wallflower who works in a Hamburg factory and lives with
her parents, and suddenly becomes West Germany's
first female bank robber. Based on a true story, the
fast-paced, engaging action film combines cops-androbbers drama and love story. Werler carried out 19
armed robberies and was as famous for them as for
her fashion. Think Arthur Penn’s Bonnie and Clyde
(1967) meets Catch Me If You Can (2002). Set in the
1960s, Banklady features costumes and set design
that make cinematic nods to Godard and the masters
of the French New Wave. —Christina Gerhardt

2nd Berlin & Beyond Honolulu - 2014
Galled by their intelligent but rebellious daughter’s
refusal to meet her “potential,” Mika’s parents send
her to spend the summer with her stern grandmother,
a former Olympian who now operates a famous riding
school. Exploring the stables against her grandmother’s
orders, Mika discovers a kindred soul—the fierce
Windstorm, a gorgeous black stallion too wild to be
mounted by anyone. Mika discovers her secret equestrian talent in a series of thrillingly illicit afternoon
rides on Windstorm just as her grandmother’s plans
to sell him threaten to destroy her newfound passion.

The Dark Valley
Diplomacy
Das finstere Tal
Diplomatie
Austria’s Entry to the 2015 Academy Awards for Best
Foreign Language Film consideration. Seven-time
winner at the 2014 German Film Awards.
As the Allies march toward Paris in the summer of
1944, Hitler gives orders that the French capital should
not fall into enemy hands, or if it does, then “only as a
field of rubble.” Carrying out this barbaric act is the
Wehrmacht commander of Greater Paris, General
Dietrich von Choltitz, who has already planted mines
on the Eiffel Tower, in the Louvre, in Notre Dame, and
on the bridges over the Seine. However, at dawn on
August 25th, Swedish Consul General Raoul Nordling
steals into German headquarters through a secret
underground tunnel and begins a tension-filled game
of cat and mouse as he tries to persuade Choltitz
to abandon his plan.
British actor Sam Riley (Disney’s Maleficent) speaks
German in this Alpine tale: A lone rider arrives in a
small high mountain village; nobody knows where he’s
from and nobody wants him there. Greider introduces
himself as a photographer from America, and the town’s
patriarch, Old Brenner, provides him with shelter for
the harsh winter ahead. When the village is cut off by
heavy snowfall, a tragic accident leads to the death of
one of Brenner’s beloved sons. When another son is
mysteriously killed, it is clear this is not a coincidence:
the time has come for Brenner’s family to pay, and
Greider plans to settle a score long forgotten by everyone but him.
