The Sound of Falling (In die Sonne schauen) [2025]: Tuesday September 8th
One of the most critically acclaimed German films in recent memory, The Sound of Falling, weaves a haunting portrait of four generations of women growing up on the same Altmark farmhouse, exploring how grief, trauma, and the quest for identity echo across time. A Jury Prize winner at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, The Sound of Falling was selected as the German entry for Best International Feature Film at the 98th Academy Awards and swept the 76th German Film Awards, winning every one of the 10 categories it was nominated for, including Best Film, Director, and Screenplay.

Mario Adrion is a stand-up comedian from a small town in Germany who gained over 3.5 million followers from posting his comedy across various social platforms. His comedy is refreshingly vulnerable, playing with the struggles and stereotypes of being a retired male model and as a European living in the United States. Over the past few years, Mario has been touring “The German EFiciency Tour” around the world, with sold out shows across the US, UK, Europe, and the Middle East. Mario will film his debut hourlong special in January 2026 before embarking on an even bigger international tour, “The Superior Comedy Tour,” in clubs and theaters across the globe. Based out of Los Angeles, Mario is one of the hottest new comics and you don’t want to miss his European charm.

Goodnight Mommy (Ich seh, Ich seh) [2014]: Tuesday October 12th
A masterclass in slow-burn, psychological tension. This Austrian thriller is a chilling, artfully crafted descent into madness and grief that brilliantly flips the script on who the “monster” really is.The film follows two twin boys who welcome their mother home after reconstructive facial surgery. With her head wrapped in bandages and her demeanor suddenly cold and distant, the boys grow deeply suspicious that she is an imposter.
