Dir. tobias Wiemann, Germany, 2017, 97 min
With her latest asthma attack, Amelie, a young
teen, nearly dies as she refuses to take her medication.
She has had enough of her illness and is angry about her
parents' divorce. Parents Sarah and Lukas decide to take
her to a lung clinic for kids located in a rural area
surrounded by nature - mountains, rivers and fields for
fresh air. But as much as the doctors and nurses try to
help Amelie she refuses to connect.
She decides to escape from the clinic by climbing a nearby mountain. As she climbs the
mountain underprepared, she encounters the most unlikely adversary willing to help her
on her journey to the top.

Dirs. Donal foreman, ireland, france, uSA, uk, 2018,
74 min
The complexities of a father/son relationship are explored
in this documentary from Irish director Donal Foreman
(‘Out of Here’). In it, Foreman grapples with the legacy of
his estranged father, the late documentarian Arthur
MacCaig, who gathered detailed archives during The
Troubles in Northern Ireland, and contributions from
others on their different experiences of nationalism.
Using over three decades of unseen footage, the film weaves a history of The North
with the story of a son’s search to better know and understand his complicated father.
‘Part documentary, part essay, part therapy…this is a fascinating account of a life
less ordinary’- The RTE Guide
A wonderful film from an intriguing, restless talent.’ – The Irish Times
