WatchMe - Sex sells

A couple, a mother, a body activist - they all earn their money on an Internet platform for pornographic content: "WatchMe". While Tim (Michelangelo Fortuzzi) tries to live up to the great ambitions of his boyfriend Josh (Simon Mantei), Toni (Anna Werner Friedmann) lives out a previously undiscovered side of her. Although she now feels electrified, she is also confronted with prejudice.

Tadellöser & Wolff

The film depicts the life of the middle-class Kempowski family in Rostock between 1939 and 1945 in great detail and closely following the novel on which it is based. In addition to describing the special events in Walter's life and in the family, there are also repeated depictions of everyday life, such as walks with his father through Rostock, at school and in youth groups, with friends and swing music, at family meals and Christmas celebrations, at church or at the cinema. Father Karl loves cigars from the company "Loeser & Wolff," which always prompts him to say "impeccable, more impeccable, Tadellöser and Wolff" when praising them.

Die Manns - Ein Jahrhundertroman

Much has been said and written about the Mann family. However, there has never been a film that brings this remarkable family to life in such a playful way. Through the docudrama format developed by Heinrich Breloer, we become direct witnesses to moving stories that no one has heard before. Stories of passion, love, and hate, of war and emigration, of tragic intertwining of personal and world historical events. The Mann family shows itself as it has never been seen before. They all appear: the brothers Thomas and Heinrich with their lifelong sibling rivalry, the extroverted siblings Erika and Klaus, the quiet Golo, and also the only child of Thomas Mann still alive today: Elisabeth.
