- Three women artists from Berlin collaborate on an exhibition sponsored by a biotech firm and end up being the first people to experience the fascinating symptoms of an evolutionary leap.
- An array of social and professional milieus have grown up at the three prop houses Fundus Studio Babelsberg, Delikatessen Requisiten Fundus Berlin and FTA Props in Hamburg. Each depot has a different logic and its own particular community with its own experiences in dealing with things. Susanne, Miu, Andreas and the three Peters are experts in moving, processing, sorting and presenting up to 100,000 different things. Lamps, cups, sofas, collection tins, flags, toy fish, plastic flowers, clocks, fake oil paintings and other film props blossom in unimaginable variety All this stuff changes hands countless times as it migrates from an old-world analogue order to diverse new ones. On the internet film props mutate into descriptions, photos and search terms. In the outside world of "made-up reality" they emerge as quotes from film and TV productions. Turning the focus onto film props reveals an eccentric history of German film, tracing their appearances in such movies as "Kolberg", "Großstadtrevier", "Welt am Draht", "Prüfstand 7" or "Art Girls", "Finsterworld" or "Sonnenallee", but also in the daily soap "Verbotene Liebe". In docu-fiction the props lead BiPOC actor and activist Thelma Buabeng into postcolonial provenance research in the props house and a daily thing-life of African objects.
- A Change of Perspectives Interdisciplinary viewpoints, audacious associations, and energizing impulses - daring to look beyond accepted boundaries. At the Lakeside Sports Club, the job-creation program participant is king: He is no less than Enki. According to Sumerian mythology, Enki created humanity, brought culture to civilization, and was the God of Seafarers. Everything would work out fine and lead to enlightenment if only the job-creation program were not ending. Robert Bramkamp's film The Boat God of the Lakeside Sports Club (The 100 Me, Part 1) (Germany, 2005, 81 min, World premiere) magically and playfully combines the Sumerian belief of the 100 Me - the 100 special capabilities which individually can only take effect at specific locations when deployed by a specific person - with the truly unique mini-cosmos of the Lakeside Sports Club. In doing so, he also reveals the connection between the Persian Gulf with the region of the Märkischen Lakes. The theory of cognition, here and now - and an appeal for an extension of Enki's sponsored job-creation program position.
