- DirectorYijun PanAnh VoStarsZiWei FengYuan LindseyThe Red Thread of Fate (also referred to as the Red Thread of Marriage) is an East Asian belief originating from Chinese legend. This myth tells the story of how god ties an invisible red thread around the little finger of those that are destined to meet each other. This myth is similar to the western concept of a soul mate or a destined flame. The concept we want to portray is in the modern world; people's relationship gets more and more complicated. So our red thread sometime is not tied to only one person anymore. Sometimes people are getting suffer and torture in the relationship mentally and physically.

- DirectorDavid RadokStarsMats PerssonKatarina GiotasPia SvoronoThe main character in the opera is K., who has many features in common with the writer Franz Kafka, but the authors' aim was not to depict his real life. K. could at the same time be anyone fighting K.'s existential battle. The gallery of people is made up of people that Kafka actually met or that he could have met during his lifetime. Despite the title, the opera "K. Description of a struggle" is not based on Kafka's youth work "Description of a Struggle", but consists of a mosaic of quotations from his entire literary production as well as his diaries, letters and writings in the service.
- DirectorThomas ClausStarsBirgitta AssheuerA.R. PenckSimon ElsonRalf Winkler a.k.a. A.R. Penck (1939-2017) was a German painter, printmaker, sculptor, and jazz drummer. Training at the academies of the GDR or membership in the Association of Visual Artists of the GDR remain A.R. Penck refused, although he applied several times for it. And although his art, which oscillates between abstraction and figuration, does not correspond to the aesthetic ideal of socialist realism, he shares the cultural-political view of the role of the artist as a socially relevant force. Again and again Penck deals with the actually existing socialism and rubs against its contradictions. In the mid-1960s, Georg Baselitz sold Winkler's works to the gallery owner Michael Werner, who organized his first solo exhibition in Cologne in 1968.

- DirectorErich HöhneStarsKäthe AronadeMartha DawielSali Goldberg"Consolidation of the last Jews in Dresden in the Hellerberg camp" - Inserted with commentated film shots from November 23 and 24, 1942, the documentary shows the expulsion of Jews from Dresden from the "Jew houses" in Sporer Alley 2 and Güntz Street 24 under the supervision of gestapo officers, the delousing and medical examinations in the "State Decontamination Institution" in Fabrik Street 5, and the establishment of the Hellerberg camp in North Dresden. The Hellerberg Jew Camp is a project of forced labour for the Goehle works of the Zeiss-Ikon Corporation, a project which goes back to an initiative by local authorities and sections of the NSDAP such as the Gestapo and the Zeiss-Ikon Corporation. Not until the camp's closure was in progress in February 1943 did it serve the Gestapo as a collection camp for the immediately approaching deportation to Auschwitz.
- DirectorBertram RotermundRudolf SimonStarsHelga BertramMartin Ming-Jeh ChenMargot Heuselein"Until the Gestapo came - The "Chinese Quarter" in St. Pauli" - If you look for the beginnings of Chinese life in Hamburg, you will initially find nothing more than a commemorative plaque in Schmuckstrasse in St. Pauli. In the middle of Hamburg's Kiez, between Talstrasse and Grosse Freiheit, there was already a "Chinese Quarter" in the 1920s. After the First World War, a few hundred Chinese, mostly former sailors, settled there, with small shops, laundries and restaurants in the basement. In Altona, the Chinese belonged to the international melting pot of the colorful harbor district. However, they were mostly perceived with a distance as strange or even threatening: rumors of "opium dens" and a seedy "underworld" circulated, police actions and racial discrimination were the order of the day, even if the exotic, foreign atmosphere of the "Chinese alley" made some St .-Pauli-Flaneur fascinated. During the Third Reich, the Chinese in Hamburg came under increasing scrutiny from the authorities and were persecuted, interned or expelled. On May 13, 1944, the Gestapo finally carried out a "Chinese action" in which 130 Chinese men were arrested, mistreated and imprisoned for months in the "Langer Morgen" work education camp in the port of Hamburg. That was the end of the "Chinese Quarter" in St. Pauli. The film goes in search of traces and speaks to many eyewitnesses who report very impressively on their experiences and memories of the Chinese community in St.Pauli during the war and post-war years.

- StarsChristian RückRichard J. McNallyDan JosefssonThe Karolinska Institute organizes a conference on false memories, and what the Thomas Quick case can teach the world of research.

- DirectorDaniel O'ReillyMarianna O'ReillyStarsAntinomy SummonerArkhip IppolitovTomas BlaufeldtOn April 9th 2009, maverick video-maker and self-professed 'outsider' Arkhip Ippolitov failed in his bid to commit suicide. The investigation that followed revealed a man on the fringes of sanity who had all but erased his identity in favour of living out his life as a fictional character; a character doomed from the outset. Most curious however is that the process of his breakdown was documented and released in the form of the award-winning motion picture 'Goliadkin'. This documentary, produced in association with The Institute of Film and Video Studies, Copenhagen, attempts to discern fact from myth and make sensible the question: 'Who is Arkhip Ippolitov?'
- DirectorThomas BerndtStefan BuchenJochen GraebertStarsChristian BrücknerMohamed Hassan AtiyaMohammed AttaMohammed Atta, death pilot from New York and suspected head of the Hamburg terrorist cell, was briefly in the sights of German investigators even before the attack on September 11, 2001. The recorded conversation, according to the investigators in retrospect, sounded so harmless that this lead was not pursued further. In addition, it was not possible to identify Atta at the time. Only after the attacks in New York and Washington did the investigators realize that they were already on the trail of the top terrorist.

We follow her treatment with world-leading BDD specialist Dr. David Veale and see her growing self-confidence in public, not least as she handles having herself portrayed on camera despite her feelings of self-revulsion.

- DirectorRon OrdersStarsNikolaus DutschHeinrich GiskesStephan SchwartzDuring the Great War (WWI) and in its aftermath many German artists like George Grosz, Emil Nolde and Otto Dix became politically involved. This film uses their art and their own words to explore that volatile period in Germany. The Weimar Republic, established between the end of World War I and the Nazi rise to power, was a thriving laboratory of art and culture. As the country experienced unprecedented and often tumultuous social, economic, and political upheaval, many artists rejected Expressionism in favor of a new realism to capture this emerging society.

- StarsMichael KloftRichard John EvansIan Kershaw"Nobody shaped the 20th century more than Adolf Hitler," says British star historian Sir Ian Kershaw. The shocking experience still has an undeniable that even a modern, advanced and cultivated society can fall unimaginably quickly into barbarism. Hitler is a symbol of violence and inhumanity, fanatical racism and perverted nationalism, for war and genocide. The representation of Hitler as a person is still a taboo. He was the incarnation of evil, a monster of history, many experts. Personal games in this life only a subordinate role. Others are convinced that exploration of the private side can give important information about the political actions of the despot.
- DirectorA. Langgaard NielsenStarsFrits ClausenPer DahlbergOve Dahl JacobsenPropaganda film for DNSAP in four chapters with the subtitle: A Film about the Struggle for the People's Right to Work, Bread and Freedom.

- DirectorLeo De BoerStarsPeter-Jürgen BoockAdrie EekenCiska EekenWere we terrorists?', the people in this film wonder. Thirty years after their Armed Struggle, when their lives were determined by revolutionary ardour, they look back on their violent political actions in the early 1970's. In the wake of the German RAF - the Rote Armee Fraktion also known as the Baader-Meinhof group - the Dutch Red Youth carried out bomb attacks and political actions against the Vietnam-war and capitalist society. When a number of them went to Yemen to take part in a Palestinian guerrilla training, there was no turning back. Their instructor, RAF member Peter-Jürgen Boock, who was later involved in the kidnapping and killing of the politician Hanns-Martin Schleyer, remembers those Dutch very well. Were they fit to be terrorists? And will they ever be able to get rid of this terrorist-stigma?

- StarsRoland PerssonLars CollmarMattias BylundMan is always on the move. Movement and development are something fundamental to humans. She is always on the way, both in the everyday sense of stressing here and there in the management of life, but also in a deeper sense, on the way through life towards maturity and deepening, and towards death. Everyday routes to and from the store and work, as well as the body's route through all the vicissitudes of life, are external routes. Parallel to the external ones, there is also an inner path, the mystical path towards the very innermost core of life, a path towards God - Via Mystica.
