Alle Jahre wieder

Even on Christmas Eve, Heinz Becker's wife Hilde and son Stefan are not granted any peace and quiet, as their head of the family with the Batschkapp and the eternally chattering mouth turns the celebration of love into a less than contemplative horror trip for the whole family. Even the question of whether sausages should be served hot or cold with the potato salad leads to disputes under the Christmas tree - which Heinz can only force into balance with brute force. When the Christmas tree figure remains untraceable, the oven develops volcanic heat and mother Hilde completes the chaos with her unconditional desire for harmony, Heinz is proven right once again when he says: "Christmas is a matter of nerves".

Chroniques vietnamiennes

Thi Bach is of Vietnamese origin. She arrived in France at the age of 15 in 1975 and has lived there ever since. Guillaume Mazeline is the grandson of André, an officer in the French Expeditionary Corps who fought in the Indochina War between 1948 and 1950. In May 2005, the two of them took a trip to Ho Chi Minh City, where Thi Bach grew up, then to Hanoi and the surrounding countryside, where André spent two years. They went in search of traces of their past. Extending the narrative, the Vietnamese people they meet talk about their memories of the war and their hopes and concerns about the evolution of their society. This Vietnam and that of the Indochina War are the contexts for the filmmakers' questioning. Both revisit their identities: that of a grandson confronted with his grandfather's colonial experience, and that of a Vietnamese woman who has now become a French citizen.
