First Berlinale selection

The extensively celebrated 75th edition of the Berlin International Film Festival has barely closed its doors when two of its highlights are already coming to cinemas here. Tom Tykwer's "The Light" will be pouring across the country's biggest screens from the end of March. While Mala Emde will be sprinting through "Köln 75" with plenty of local and contemporary colour from the middle of the month, on the hunt for the perfect grand piano. To balance things out, comedian Seth Rogen turns Hollywood on its head as a newly minted film boss in the Apple TV+ series "The Studio".

Poetry and anarchy

Poetry and anarchy combine in two of February's most beautiful films: while the Spanish drama "The Teacher Who Promised Us the Sea" tells the story of a poetic teacher in the resistance against Franco, the English drama "Bird" is all about the magic in the chaotic life of a twelve-year-old. The third season of the satire "The White Lotus" kicks off on Sky and Wow.

Real pop stars and true folk heroes

Anyone planning to enter the music business in 2025 can now pick up a few tips at the cinema. But be careful, these are feature films, not documentaries. In "Better Man", you can tell by the fact that the star of the film, Robbie Williams, is portrayed by a fantastically animated monkey. Motto: Stardom is a monkey business! Gaelic-Irish hip-hoppers Kneecap are working on their own myth. Department stores' extortionist Arno Funke, on the other hand, took a completely different route to fame in the early 90s.

Cinema in the course of time

Film is always a game with time. In "The Outrun", director Nora Fingscheidt assembles the story of her protagonist from memories. In "Here", legendary director Robert Zemeckis observes a single place over millions of years. The work of director Wim Wenders spans more than 50 years. He has picked out his ten favourite feature films for the "Best of Wim Wenders" DVD box set.

"I come from out of the trade; I have to tell you it's REWEihnachtet very much!"

We would like to ring in the pre-Christmas season with a modified classic poem and express our sincere thanks to all employees from all Business Areas in Germany and abroad for their outstanding work and extraordinary commitment to REWE Group!

Films & Co. in November

Children, church, guns

Nowadays, film stories can no longer do without women in leading roles. Even in the Vatican, they are modestly at the centre, as "Conclave" proves. In Jacques Audiard's transgender gangster musical "Emilia Pérez", a feared drug baron fulfils his dream of living in a woman's body. And Saoirse Ronan rushes through London in a hail of bombs as a courageous mother in "Blitz".

Documented history

Documentaries have long since ceased to be a marginal phenomenon in cinema. In "Dahomey", director Mati Diop captures the repatriation of stolen art to Benin in an unusual way and was honoured with the Golden Bear for her work. "Riefenstahl" by Andres Veiel may have screened out of competition in the Venice competition, but the filmic treatment of Leni Reifenstahl's estate made waves. If you feel like escapism after so much documented history, you can let yourself fall into the eight-part, guaranteed fictional reality of Batman's supervillain "The Penguin" on Sky/WOW.

Women on the edge of hell

Women in extreme situations are the focus of cinema in September. In "The Substance", Demi Moore undergoes a horrendous makeover. Meanwhile, Kate Winslet follows in the footsteps of "photographer" Lee Miller and documents the liberated concentration camps of Buchenwald and Dachau. And Arthaus-Verleih honours Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar on his 75th birthday with his ten best films in a DVD box set.

Old states rediscovered

"Two to One" resurrects the GDR and tells the true story of the East German mark in its final stages. In "The Dead Don't Hurt", actor and director Viggo Mortensen looks at the colonisation of North America through the eyes of a young migrant. The years 1985 to 2020 in West Germany can be watched on the ARD Plus streaming channel with 1758 episodes of "Lindenstraße".

Two taxis and love

In times of digitalisation, taxis have become almost the only place where people can actually look each other in the eye. In the New York Yellow Cab of "Daddio", a profound conversation about relationships develops between Sean Penn and Dakota Johnson. While in the Tehran of "A Small Piece of the Pie", a late love affair takes shape - with unexpected consequences. The seven episodes of the HBO satire series "The Sympathizer", on the other hand, take us on a trip to Vietnam in Hollywood style.

Atmospherically colourful

Rain is followed by sunshine - even in summer cinema. The rain falls like buckets in the British natural disaster drama "The End We Start From". In his directorial debut "Problemista", Julio Torres takes us on a journey into shrill, colourful magical realism. And for those who want to be drawn into the dangerously romantic atmosphere of a London tower block, the DVD of "All of Us Strangers" is highly recommended.

War and friendship

While the eponymous civil war rages in "Civil War", the dog in the animated film "Robot Dreams" makes himself a playmate out of tin. The eight episodes of the "Wednesday" series on DVD are wonderfully dark - our tips for May.

Berlinale Selection

Two of the most acclaimed films of the 74th Berlin Film Festival are coming to cinemas here this April. In "Andrea Gets a Divorce", Austrian cabaret artist Josef Hader puts Birgit Minichmayr in a moral quandary. Matthias Glasner's epic "Dying", for which he was honoured with the Silver Screenplay Bear, was also surprisingly cheerful.

You can't make it up..

In March, things get turbulent in the cinema and dark on the screen. Persian-American director Maryam Kesharvarz has spiced up her own biography to turn it into the quirky tragicomedy "The Persian Version". Nicolas Cage haunts the dreams of complete strangers. And director Robert Schwentke knits the seven-part thriller series "Helgoland 513" from real-life experiences during the Covid pandemic.

Old wise masters

At this year's Cannes Film Festival, three wise old masters of cinema competed for the Palme d'Or, whose films are not only instantly recognisable by their signature style, but also by the power of their content. Ken Loach, Wim Wenders and Martin Scorsese. We introduce them.

Historical paths

in 2012, historiography in Great Britain had to be corrected somewhat when Richard III's grave was found under a car park. Director Steven Frears turned it into the comedic drama "The Lost King". In "The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry", Jim Broadbent wanders the British Isles as the title character. And Prime Video is once again unleashing heaven and hell with a new season of "Good Omens".

Unusual insights

What does it look like, the soul of a person who hides from the world around them? In "The Whale", director Darren Aronofsky has sent Brendan Fraser on course for an Oscar with this question. Through the expressive eyes of Leonie Benesch, we get an insight into "The Staffroom" of a secondary school in turmoil. And the BBC series "The English" offers a Wild West like you've never seen before.

Tears of laughter in the cinema

Tragicomedy is when you can still laugh. This need for a smile behind the tears even seems to be global. In "Broker", Japanese director Hirokazu Kore-eda finds it in a young mother looking for a new family for babies. In "Red Sky", German filmmaker Christian Petzold follows the self-pity of a young author with one laughing and one crying eye. And Damien Chazelle brings the golden era of Hollywood to a close with a glittering film party on the "Babylon" DVD.

Farewell to icons

As the first woman to lead a large orchestra, Lydia "Tár" (Cate Blanchett) is well on her way to becoming a classical music icon. Until her success goes to her head. Empress Elisabeth of Austria has always struggled with her celebrity. In "Sisi & I", director Frauke Finsterwalder gives her a new image. And the reputation of the Italian western hero "Django" is also revamped.

Hollywood Horrorland

The cinema year 2023 begins with a big bang, which is also a swan song to Hollywood's golden era of silent films. In "Babylon", director Damien Chazelle lets Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie bathe "in the ecstasy of ecstasy" before they fail because of the soundtrack. With the zombie comedy "Final Cut of the Dead", French director Michel Hazanavicius makes a declaration of love to filmmaking. Things get really spooky at Netflix with Christian Bale and the "Memorable Case of Mr Poe".

Turbulent contemplation

At the turn of the year, you are spoilt for choice when it comes to good cinema. "On a Beautiful Morning" sends the audience to present-day Paris in a light-heartedly tragic way. The Banshees of Inisherin" is dangerously idyllic and darkly nostalgic.
