German Angst

We tell contemporary tales that take on sociopolitical subjects in all their varied cultural manifestations, a tradition that goes back to the early genre films of the 1920’s, which often offered a critical and occasionally corrosive commentary on contemporary political and social developments and upheavals. A century later, this is where we come in; by lending a new perspective to timeless subjects such as violence, racism, sex and drugs, all as prevalent in modern multicultural liberal Berlin as they were a hundred years ago. (Michal Kosakowski). GERMAN ANGST premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam in 2015.
