Breaking Borders - The Legacy of the Berlin Wall Jumper
In the heart-wrenching documentary "Breaking Borders," viewers are taken on a poignant journey through the life of Andreas Jaeger, a courageous man who dared to defy the oppressive Berlin Wall. Shot while attempting to cross from East to West Berlin, Andreas's story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the enduring legacy of those who risked everything for freedom. As the film unfolds, we witness the harrowing moment when a young Andreas, driven by a fervent desire for a better life, makes the daring decision to escape the confines of East Berlin. The gunshot that pierces the air echoes through the decades, serving as a stark reminder of the brutal reality faced by those living under the shadow of the Wall.
The Shipwrecked Triptych
Mutiny: Some caregivers party in a New Year’s Eve nursing home. Boarding: A Congolese family living in Germany is visited by a pretend social worker. Adrift: A man crushed by his community wanders in the medieval German countryside. Spanning three interlinked but stylistically distinct films, the triptych navigates the metaphoric and literal topographies of shipwreck as both rupture and reckoning, building a suggestive meditation on exile, identity, and the fractured condition of modern belonging.
