‘Menschen am Sonntag’ (People on Sunday)
GER 1930, directed by Robert Siodmak, Edgar G. Ulmer, 74 min, OmeU
 

It’s summer in Berlin and a group of young people work, live and love side by side in this semi-documentary-style silent classic, which was filmed with amateurs. They are heading for Nikolassee on their only free day. Life seems carefree and the future a long way off. Musician Sky Deep creates a new sound for the film, interpreting the images live for the first time with her energetic mix of electronic grooves.
 

‘Cultural Nationalism’
BRD 1969, directed by Skip Norman, 11 min, OmU
 

A snow-covered meadow. A figure appears on the horizon, slowly moving towards us. At the same time, we hear the voice of Bobby Seale, co-founder of the Black Panther Party.

About the film series

Looking Back to the Present

From 14 November to 19 December 2025, we will transform our historic hall in the former E-Werk into a venue for film events. The program includes current festival films, historical works and experimental short films – accompanied by guests such as the musician Sky Deep and the filmmakers Ulrike Ottinger and Julian Radlmaier. The series connects the present with film history and invites viewers to rediscover the Kinemathek as a forum to exchange ideas.
