Film An – Zug Ab!
We're looking forward to next week: there's almost a festival atmosphere in the Blauer Salon! First, UNCLE BOONMEE, a piece of "recent" film history, will be shown on Monday and then the projectors will be rattling away until Tuesday, when we will be hosting Dr. Thomas Helbig from Göthe University Frankfurt for a themed evening. It's all about trains in cinema, there are lots of train movies to see, including the new film by Peter Tscherkassky "Train Again". As always on 35mm.
Review: Silent Film Event
Read moreWe think so: Always nice to look back! So we look back on a great silent movie night last Monday. A promising start to a new musical and cinematic year 2024. We are delighted that so many of you came along, Richard Siedhoff once again outdid himself on the keys and the films were great - great, great, great!
2024 starts with Silent Film Concert!
Read moreWe can hardly wait for 2024, which begins with a small cinematic highlight: the well-known silent film pianist Richard Siedhoff is coming all the way from Weimar to breathe new life into two silent films with his piano playing. Be there!
Last Screening in 2023
We're firing up the projectors one last time before we lie headfirst under the Christmas tree. On Friday, December 22nd, Solo Sunny will give us another little boost before we all abandon ourselves to the cookies and the peace of the contemplative New Year. As always with a supporting program and 35mm, this time from the DEFA Foundation.
Happy Birthday Christoph!
Today Christoph Schlingensief would have turned 63. One becomes melancholy and wonders why it always hits the best first. But that would not be in his sense, we tear down next Monday the Blue Salon -probably rather in his sense-and celebrate, scream and jolen with the GERMAN CHAINSAW MASSACRE!
Trailer Winter-Program
Our shrewd chairman of the board, who is privately very interested in video in addition to his committee work and has even set up a real video editing room in his basement, locked himself in there over the weekend and fabricated this great trailer, which makes great desire, even us, for the program in the winter semester!
Here's the new Winter Term Program!
With a good bottle of wine as that became a habit we thought about what could fit in the fall and winter, cinematically speaking. The pondering came to an end, ans so came the wine bottle. We now hold in our hands a very nice program, with elegant density, spicy finish and, as always, the classic tingling cinema pleasure.
Open Air 2023 Review
Read moreWith a little distance, it all really looked pretty good again! We thank you for the nice evenings in front of the HfG and hope to see you again next year!
Open Air Cinema 2023
Get out the picnic blanket, it's open air cinema again! And once again we are ahead of the game and get the award for the first open air cinema of the year in Karlsruhe in advance. On two weekends in June we will show films, each representing one genre of science fiction film history: Utopia, Dystopia and last but not least: Comedy! We are looking forward to you.
Program Summer Term 2023
After a long renovation break, the Blaue Salon opens its freshly painted doors again for the summer semester. From April to July, we always show a short pre-film on the last Monday of the month (mnemonic: Le-Mo-De-Mo), as well as a feature film in analog 16mm film projection.
