Box Office Around the World
What films captivate audiences in Nigeria, Vietnam, or Argentina? Which productions sell out cinemas in Thailand, Brazil, or India? Over three weekends in August the Stiftung Humboldt Forum im Berliner Schloss will host the film festival Box Office Around the World, highlighting big-screen cinema from these six countries. Under an open sky in the Schlüterhof, we will present the latest films which, although they might be blockbusters in the countries in which they were produced, audiences in Germany have had little chance to see. After a successful series start last year, film curator Dorothee Wenner has put together yet another diverse programme together with representatives from Berlin’s communities. Discussions and workshops held before each film will set the stage for each production. Directors Funke Akindele and Luciana Bezerra and the Sensation Dance Team are just a few of the guests who will be appearing at the festival.
