From the filmmakers:

“The three of us have been working together in the "Filmsamstag" for more than 8 years programming films once a month in the cinema Filmkunsthaus Babylon in Berlin. Most of the films we showed had one thing in common: they were made by directors and filmmakers who were and are obstinately pursuing their own way. This idiosyncratic approach also characterizes our own films in a way that comprises for instance the kind of camera Ute and Milena use (Ute the Bolex, Milena the Super8) and the subjects we choose, which in a way are always close to our respective (particular) lives and biographies. The films we are going to show oscillate between experimental and documentary. Some are silent, some have some music, some put silence against sound; there are interviews, there is poetry, there is a film that consists of one long shot of seven minutes, some are a fast cascade of carefully edited images and some are edited in the camera. With each program on our tour, we will try to show some of this diversity.” < back
