"The Last Farm In The Valley" wins MUNICH INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL
by MUNICH INTERNATIONAL 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

ENGLISH VERSION BELOW! ---------------------------- GERMAN VERSION ---------------------------- "The Last Farm In The Valley" gewinnt MUNICH INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL Der Preis des ersten Internationalen Kurzfilmfestials MUNICH INTERNATIONAL geht an den isländischen Beitrag "The Last Farm In The Valley" (Síðasti Bærinn Í Dalnum) von Runar Runarsson. Der 17minütige Kurzfilm erzählt von Hrafn, der auf einem einsamen Hof irgendwo in Island lebt. Nach dem Tod seiner Frau verteidigt er unbeirrt seine Unabhängigkeit und seine Würde. Vor dem Preis des MUNICH INTERNATIONAL short film festival hat "The Last Farm In The Valley" bereits den isländischen Filmpreis "Edda" gewonnen und war dieses Jahr für einen Oscar in der Kategorie "Best live action short film" nomiert. Nun wird ihm der Preis der UNICA (Union Internationale du Cinéma bei der UNESCO) verliehen, der von Kodak mit Filmmaterial für das nächste Projekt des Filmemachers dotiert wird. Die Veranstalter Münchner Filmwerkstatt und CommClub München und der Kinopartner Mathäser Filmpalast ziehen ein positives Resümee der ersten Ausgabe des MUNICH INTERNATIONAL short film festival. Festivalleiter Martin Blankemeyer: "Wir sind sehr zufrieden: trotz vieler alternativer Angebote und einem sonnigen Samstag waren unsere Vorstellungen gut besucht, und auch das Feedback der Zuschauer war durchweg positiv: wir konnten unseren Anspruch, jedem Besucher neues und inspirierendes zu bieten und etwas zur Horizonterweiterung beitragen, in vollem Umfang einlösen." Und also wollen die Veranstalter ihre Zusammenarbeit im nächsten Jahr fortsetzen; Daten und Filme für 2007 werden rechtzeitig über die Internetseite www.muc-intl.de kommuniziert. Die Veranstalter: Die Münchner Filmwerkstatt ist ein Zusammenschluß junger Regisseure, Produzenten und anderer Filmschaffender, die sich gegenseitig beim Start in der Filmindustrie unterstützen. Ein Teil der Werke ihrer Mitglieder, aber auch von externen Filmemachern, wird von der Münchner Filmwerkstatt selbst produziert und/oder vertrieben. Beim CommClub München ist jeder willkommen, der aus der Kommunikationsbranche kommt oder auf dem Weg dorthin ist. Unter dem Motto "Wissen sammeln und das persönliche Netzwerk stärken" bietet er ein breit gefächertes Spektrum von Veranstaltungen und persönlichen Treffen zu den Bereichen Wissen, Netzwerk und Fun. Der CommClub München ist dem Medienstandort München verpflichtet und sieht seine Aufgabe darin, die Menschen der verschiedensten Branchen an einen Tisch zu bringen. ---------------------------- ENGLISH VERSION ---------------------------- "The Last Farm In The Valley" wins MUNICH INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL The award of the first annual MUNICH INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL goes to the Icelandic competitor "The Last Farm In The Valley" (Síðasti Bærinn Í Dalnum) by Runar Runarsson: Somewhere in Iceland there is a lonely farm where old Hrafn and his wife live. When she dies, Hrafn persistently struggles for independence and dignity. The 17 minute short film already won the Islandic film award "Edda" and was nominated for this year's Academy Award in the category "Best live action short film". UNICA, the UNESCO's international union of cinema, now bestows "The Last Farm In The Valley" with an award endowed by Kodak with film material for the filmmaker's next project. The organizers Munich Filmwerkstatt and CommClub Munich and the partner cinema Mathaeser positively summed up the first annual MUNICH INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL. Festival director Martin Blankemeyer: "We are extremely content! Although there were lots of alternative events taking place in the city and Saturday was a very sunny day, our screenings were well attended and the feedback of the audience was consistently positive. We could fulfill our aspiration to the full extent, offering our spectators insights both new and inspiring, enlarging their horizons." Hence, the organizers plan to proceed with their cooperation next year. The dates and films will be announced in time at www.muc-intl.de. The organizers: Munich Filmwerkstatt is an association of young directors, producers and other members of the filmmaking community, supporting each other's films and careers. Some of the members' films, in addition to those outside the organization, are produced and/or distributed by Munich Filmwerkstatt. CommClub Munich welcomes everyone starting or established in the communication industry. With the motto "Collecting knowledge and strengthening personal networking", a widespread range of events and meetings are offered, focusing on information, networking and fun. CommClub Munich is dedicated to the media industry in Munich and fulfills its obligation by bringing people from various branches together. ---------------------------- MUNICH INTERNATIONAL short film festival ---------------------------- Muenchner Filmwerkstatt e.V.

MUNICH INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL: This weekend at the Mathaeser
by MUNICH INTERNATIONAL 23 Mar '06

23 Mar '06

ENGLISH VERSION BELOW! ---------------------------- GERMAN VERSION ---------------------------- MUNICH INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL vom 24. bis zum 26. März 2006 im Mathäser Filmpalast 38 Filme aus 23 Ländern stehen dieses Wochenende im Wettbewerb des Internationalen Kurzfilmfestivals "MUNICH INTERNATIONAL", das dieses Jahr in der bayerischen Landeshauptstadt, dem wichtigsten deutschen Filmstandort, zum ersten Mal stattfindet. Alle Filme waren noch nie in Bayern zu sehen, 23 von ihnen erfahren hier ihre deutsche Erstaufführung. Unter den Filmen waren drei für den Oscar nominiert, vier für den Europäischen Filmpreis, vier haben Studentenoscars gewonnen, fünf einen Emmy Award, fünf einen Prix UIP und 13 einen Jameson Kurzfilmpreis und viele sind Gewinnerfilme nationaler Filmpreise wie des spanischen Goya oder der isländischen Edda. Festivalleiter Martin Blankemeyer hat diese Perlen in fünf Programmen in Anlehnung an die fünf Geschmacksrichtungen zusammengestellt: Im Programm "Sweet", mit dem das Festival am Freitag um 18:00 Uhr eröffnet, laufen sechs Kurzfilme rund um Liebe, Partnerschaft und Sex von der hollywoodesken Romantic Comedy "Love Thy Neighbor" bis zur weiblichen Masturbationsphantasie "Susie", umgesetzt als Puppentrickfilm. Das Programm "Salty" verbindet Schweißtreibendes wie die griechische Olympia-Parabel "Pilala" mit politisch Gesalzenem wie dem amerikanischen Animationsfilm "Rex Steele: Nazi Smasher", der neueste Animationstechniken mit Wochenschauoptik der 30er Jahre verbindet. "Bitter" zeigt eine Auswahl von Filmen ohne Happy End, darunter den dokumentarischen Zeichentrickfilm "The Yellow Bus" über Landflucht aus Ungarn, die Dokumentation "Land of Mist" über Asylbewerber ihn Dänemark aber auch den fast heiteren irischen Kurzfilm "Killing The Afternoon" über einen Nachmittag am Strand wäre da nicht sein bitteres Ende. "Sour" präsentiert Anspruchsvolles, ohne hoffnungslos zu sein. Da stehen gruppendynamische Prozesse wie in "Meander" neben Filmen über den Umgang mit dem Tod ("Wake") neben der Beziehungsgeschichte "Mekong Interior". Die US-amerikanische Regisseurin Vanessa Ly drehte diesen sehr französischen Film in Kambodscha. "Umami" letztlich ist eine von der Wissenschaft anerkannte Geschmacksrichtung, die den Weg ins Bewußtsein der Allgemeinheit (noch) nicht gefunden hat. So versammelt dieses Programm Unbekanntes, das starke Eindrücke hinterläßt genau wie der Geschmacksstoff Glutamat, der Träger des Geschmacks "Umami". Beispiele dafür sind der in Flash programmierte Trickfilm "Frog" über einen Teufelskreis und das Oscar-nominierte Drama "Little Terrorist" über einen kleinen Jungen, der an der indisch-pakistanischen Grenze versehentlich zum Spielball der großen Politik wird. Alle Filme sind mit englischen Untertiteln versehen. Nähere Informationen über die einzelnen Filme und das genaue Programm finden sich auf der Webseite des Festivals www.muc-intl.de Tickets für die Vorstellungen der fünf "geschmackvollen" Kurzfilmprogramme gibt es zum Preis von 5 Euro (Studenten 4,50 Euro) im Mathäser Filmpalast; der Festivalpaß, der zum Zutritt zu allen Vorstellungen des Festivals berechtigt, kann dort bei Vorlage eines Paßphotos für 18 Euro erworben werden. Das Festival ist eine gemeinsame Veranstaltung der Münchner Filmwerkstatt und des CommClub München in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Mathäser Filmpalast und mit freundlicher Unterstützung von GO> München, Toytown Munich, dem Mediencampus Bayern, dem Italienischen Kulturinstitut, Early Bird Films und Michael Dorka und steht unter dem Patronat der UNICA, die dem innovativsten Film des Festivals den von Kodak mit Filmmaterial für das nächste Projekt des Filmemachers dotierten Großen Preis des Festivals verleiht. ---------------------------- ENGLISH VERSION ---------------------------- MUNICH INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL from March 24-26, 2006 at the Mathaeser 38 films from 23 countries are running for competition at MUNICH INTERNATIONAL short film festival, which takes place this weekend in the Bavarian capitol, the leading city of film production in Germany. All films are Bavarian premieres, 23 of them are even celebrating their German premiere. Among the films are three Oscar-nominees, four nominees for the European Film Award, four winners of the student Oscar, five Emmy award winners, five winners of the Prix UIP, 13 winners of the Jameson short film award and winning films of many national short film awards such as Spains Goya and Icelands Edda. Festival director Martin Blankemeyer assembled five programs assigned to the five basic taste sensations: The program "Sweet", launching the festival on Friday at 6 p.m., comprises six short films involving love, partners and sex ranging from the Hollywood-like romantic comedy "Love Thy Neighbor" to the female masturbation fantasy "Susie", a puppet animation. The program "Salty" combines the physically sweatening like the Greek Olympia-parable "Pilala" with the politically "salty" like the US animation "Rex Steele: Nazi Smasher", which fuses state-of-the-art animation techniques with the visual style of the German Wochenschau from the 1930s. "Bitter" shows a selection of films without happy endings, among those the documentary animation "The Yellow Bus" on rural flight in Hungary, the documentary "Land of Mist" about asylum seekers in Denmark, as well as the almost cheerful "Killing The Afternoon" about an afternoon on the beach wouldnt there be its bitter ending. "Sour" showcases demanding films, without lacking hope. Group dynamics such as in "Meander" neighbor reflections on death ("Wake") and on relationship: US director Vanessa Ly shot "Mekong Interior" - a perfect example of typical French Cinema - in Cambodia. "Umami", at last, is a scientifically acknowledged taste sensation, but hasnt come to public awareness (yet). Hence, this program presents unknown territory that gives strong impressions just as glutamate, the epitome of umami. For example the Flash-programmed animation "Frog" about a vicious circle and the Oscar-nominated drama "Little Terrorist" about a boy who becomes an object of international politics as he crosses the Indo-Pakistani border by mistake. All films will be screened in their original English language or with English subtitles. More information on the individual films and the screening program can be found at the festival website www.muc-intl.de Tickets for each "tasty" program can be purchased at the Mathaeser for 5 ( 4.50 for students). A festival pass, which allows access to all screenings, can be obtained for 18 (passport-size photo required). The festival is presented by the Munich Filmwerkstatt and CommClub Munich, in Cooperation with Munichs largest movie theatre Mathaeser, and with the support of GO> Munich, Toytown Munich, Media Campus Bavaria, Italian Cultural Institute, Early Bird Films and Michael Dorka. The festival is operated under the patronage of UNICA, which bestows the most innovative film with an award endowed by Kodak with film material for the filmmakers next project. ---------------------------- MUNICH INTERNATIONAL short film festival ---------------------------- Muenchner Filmwerkstatt e.V.

Waiting Alone was nominated for three awards, including “BEST PICTURE”, at the 2005 Chinese Academy Awards (Golden Rooster Awards) -- The first ever by a foreign director, and the only first-feature and the only indie film in category! --------------------------------------------------------------- Set in Beijing, the film is a window into modern Chinese youth culture. Waiting Alone is a coming-of-age tale which tells the first-person-narrative story of Wen (Xia Yu), an antique shop co-owner and an aspiring author who feels that he's met the perfect girl (Li Bingbing). But no matter how close he and the girl become, he just doesn't understand why she won't fall for him. Aided by his best friends and the one girl he completely trusts (Gong Beibi), he tries different ways to woo her, playing along within the “rules of the game”...
