We are very pleased to announce that TEN YEARS by Matthias von Gunten will be released in cinemas on March 7th and will be accompanied by a premiere tour starting on March 3rd!

For ten years, the director observes how four young people pursue their careers between success and failure, between faith and doubt. The film is a real highlight, revealing a sincere and unadulterated closeness to the characters portrayed without flaunting them. The result is an intimate look that reveals innermost feelings, fears and changes.

We are delighted that the film REAS by Lola Arias will celebrate its world premiere at the Berlinale Forum.

REAS is a collective work that reinvents the genre of the musical: The performers dance and sing about their past in prison, relive their lives as fiction and invent a possible future for themselves through fantasy and imagination.

Director and author Lola Arias says about her second feature film:

"Reas (...) works with this strange coupling between documentary and musical, and it gives off the appearance of fiction because it’s constructed in the style of a more classical story, including its linear chronology: girl enters prison, meets a boy, falls in love, and then leaves. "

The REAS screenings in Berlin will take place as follows:

• Sunday, February 18, 2024 (world premiere in the presence of the director)at 6pm at the Delphi Filmpalast

• Tuesday, February 20, 2024 at 7pm at Cubix 7

• Thursday, February 22, 2024 at 10pm at the Arsenal 1 cinema

• Friday, February 23, 2024

at 7pm in the Zoo Palast 2

The film is a co-production between Mira Film (CH), Gema Films (AR) and Sutor Kolonko (DE).

Let yourself be surprised!
