The Beginner 2018 (6.3)

A coming-of-age tale with a difference about the grumpy doctor Annebarbel Buschhaus donning her ice skates again at the age of 58 after an absence of 40 years. Back on the ice, she tries to revive long suppressed childhood dreams – and makes a new friend, Jolina Kuhn, Berlin’s youth figure skating champion. Through her new friend, Annebarbel begins to open up and break away from her dominant mother.

Remote Area 2005 (7)

"Remote Area" is a "Heimatfilm" about a strange world in front of our own doorstep. Only 20 minutes away from the Cologne Cathedral into the foothills by tram – one of those areas you drive through in order to spend some time somewhere else. Squeezed in between Cologne and Bonn, neither urban nor rural – unsightly, faceless, arbitrary.

Ice Aged 2025

Bringing humour, grit, and pure joy to the rink, “Ice Aged” follows six senior men and women from around the world as they pursue their childhood dreams of competitive figure skating. From local ice rinks to the grand stage at the World Hobby Figure Skating Championships in Bavaria, their inspiring journey defies age and expectations. Beautifully filmed over nearly three years, the cameras capture every tear, cheer, and broken bone as these skaters pursue their dreams. Not even a global pandemic can stop them from pushing forward in this fairytale on ice.
