Secrets belong to film like darkness belongs to the cinema auditorium: they can be discovered in the stories on the screen, in images, sounds, gestures, looks, landscapes…
At the Lange Nacht der Museen, we are showing a programme of current, very different short films from six countries in keeping with this year’s motto. The Witness Tree (Niranjan Raj Bhetwal) from Nepal is about a family secret, while in Printed Rainbow (Gitanjali Rao), an elderly woman from India provides insights into the secrets of her matchboxes. In Pássaro Memória (Leonardo Martinelli) from Brazil, a mysterious bird takes flight, while in Slow Shift (Shambhavi Kaul) langurs animate the mystical temple complexes of Hampi. The Nigerian film Rehearsal (Michael Omonua) is about bizarre religious secrets and the Kenyan film A Guide to Dining out in Nairobi (Hugh Mitton) is about a lucrative business secret. The films can be seen continuously from 9 pm to 2 am in the Schlüter Courtyard.
