In January, LuxFilmLab invites you to discover a haunting portrait of four generations bound by fate with Sound of Falling by Mascha Shilinski.
Intricately and delicately intertwining the lives of four generations of women over a period of a hundred years, Sound of Falling weaves a sensory and poetic tapestry of family memories and experiences in the backdrop of historical and social traumas faced by women in the 20th-century Germany.
Mascha Schilinski’s sophomore film is already on an impressive run of success before it hits theaters: awarded with the Jury Prize at Cannes, it will represent Germany for the Best International Film at the next Oscars.
Discover the film exclusively on Wednesday 7 January at 8 pm at Ciné Utopia.
As four girls from four different eras spend their youth in the same farm in northern Germany, their lives become intertwined until time seems to dissolve.
About LuxFilmLab:
The first Wednesday of every month, LuxFilmLab – a joint initiative by Luxembourg City Film Festival and Kinepolis – highlights one feature film, chosen in cooperation by LuxFilmFest’s team and the Kinepolis programme team. A member of the Festival programming team introduces the special LuxFilmLab screenings, with the aim of supporting films whose release dates didn’t allow for them to be selected for the Festival itself but whose artistic qualities would very likely have led to their inclusion in the LuxFilmFest line-up.
*LuxFilmFest isn’t involved in the commercial aspects of these screenings. Access to the screenings and ticket prices are set by Kinepolis.
