Status Yo!
Director : Till Hastreiter
It was crazzzzyyyy.....I thought i am not going to understand this film. Lots of different things happening in different places, couldn't find the relation. What the silver train got to do ? Why people are running all around ? Why some one is chasing someone ??? Lots of questions!!!
But in the last 30% of the movie, all the puzzles solved, and it turned out to be a great movie. A new experiment, which i consider as success. It was like “Pulp Fiction”. But in this movie, events happens chronologically.

Distant Lights (Lichter)
Director : Hans-Christian Schmid
Lot of human lifes, and so lot of stories. But director handled almost 6 different stories with great discipline and presented in a wonderful way.

Cherry Blossoms - Hanami
Director :Doris Dörrie
This is one of the BEST love story that I have ever seen. The chemistry between Trudi and Rudi is great. Very touching story, it wetted my eyes. The way husband and wife loves each other, and going to extremes that they take for each other is …don’t have words. You got to watch this classic.

Film Festival - Four Minutes (Vier Minuten)
Four Minutes (Vier Minuten)
Director : Chris Kraus
I watched this wonderful movie in yesterday(11th Aug 08). A great movie. The director was able to show the strong human emotions, with wonderful support from the Actors and Camera. I give +10 to camera, a wonderful job. Perfect casting and both ladies do 100% to the character.
The climax shot is a classic one, which I seldom saw. Great brains and touch of a creative genius. The piano is at its best, I never knew piano could talk.
Below is the story line (From http://www.goethe.de/ins/in/bag/kue/flm/gfw/spf/en3541524.htm)
80-year-old former pianist Traude Krüger has been driving to the same women’s prison almost every morning since 1944. She teaches her female students – thieves, frauds and killers – how to play the piano. Seeking out new talent, Ms. Krüger meets lethargic, violent and volatile Jenny von Loeben. As a teenager, she has brutally killed a man, and is therefore considered highly dangerous. However, she used to be a ‘wunderkind’, performing at big concert halls at the age of ten.
When the uncontrollable Jenny beats the living daylights out of a prison officer at her trial piano lesson, she is put into solitary confinement. Still, Traude wins Warden Meyerbeer’s approval for an experiment. Traude is allowed to train Jenny at the piano so that she can participate in a contest for young talents. Little by little, the two vastly different women, Traude and Jenny, form a bond over the struggle with their opponents and the prison’s bureaucracy and approach one another. After another violent incident involving Jenny and a fellow inmate, the warden prohibits Jenny’s participation in the piano contest finals, but Traude smuggles Jenny out of the prison for the final. When she is on stage the police arrive to take her back to the prison.
Jenny doesn’t have much time: four minutes only. But she uses her time wisely, doing something that no one, not even Traude, would have expected.
