Another exciting addition: Following the fantastic feedback from Open air screenings, we’re establishing the Cult Sneak as a recurring series this semester. After all, what could be better than the thrill of uncertainty? The Cult Sneak will surprise you with hidden cinematic treasures that remain a mystery until the curtain rises. These films are personal favorites of our members, possess cult status, are historically significant, often diverge from the mainstream, and are sometimes unique in their own right—or all of the above all together.

This year, we’re kicking off with a fantastic gem that didn’t make it into the regular program but would have been a perfect fit if there were a color called “Blurange.” Language barriers and age don’t matter—nobody plays a role, really—the only thing that could have stopped us from presenting this film was the Prague Spring. As always, if you can guess the film before the screening, you’ll be rewarded with unique prizes and a genuinely heartfelt pat on the shoulder.

A woman swings on a swing in front of a large painting that obviously depicts an abstract phallus. The artist couple Dore O. and Werner Nekes create a rhythmic interplay between movement and static images. Through the targeted manipulation of film techniques and the analysis of visual and perceptive experiences, Jüm Jüm becomes an experimental exploration of perception and eroticism.
