The 11th German Film Festival will take place from 12 to 15 September 2019 at Academy Cinemas.
Festival entry is free and tickets can be picked up on the day for screenings on that day only. First come, first served. Online bookings are available (a non-refundable booking fee of $1.50 per ticket applies, due to the ticketing system the ticket appears with a cost of $0.01 and a booking fee of $1.50) via the Academy Cinemas website, but tickets must be picked up at least 30 mins prior to the screening, otherwise tickets will be released again.
'In concentric circles starting from the driveable border of the Brenner, ‘The Border Fence’ measures the surroundings that were the scene of a shift in inner-European policy. At the same time, the space describes itself through Nikolaus Geyrhalter’s typical extremely precise long shots, and in extended talks with police officers, locals, hikers, farmers, innkeepers, and toll collectors. What arises in an extremely small space is the full diversity of voices expressing individual political attitudes on a topic that affects Europe and is visible on the Brenner.'
