Calling Home, Across Geographies & Generations: Berlin

Video Consortium is teaming up with Al Jazeera English for the Calling Home, Across Geographies & Generations screening series in Berlin. What makes home "home" — even if you're far away from it? Join us on Saturday, October 17 at Filmtheater Colosseum for a special night of short documentaries exploring the themes of belonging, identity, and displacement. Doors open at 6pm for complimentary falafel, refreshments, and mingling. Stick around after the screening for a Q&A with the filmmakers! Lineup: • Jacob's House, directed by Lucas Kane • Existimos en la Memoria, directed by Darian Woehr • Placekeepers, directed by Robert Hope • The Cat Man Eshete, directed by Laura Checkoway From an exploration of what defines a house, to rebuilding visions of home through memory, to a remote Georgian community grappling with their place in the world, and an Ethiopian refugee who's a devoted caretaker of a feral cat colony in New York City, these true stories offer a moving look at home and belonging. Students get free admission! Email [email protected] for the discount code. Registration for this event is free if you have a VC Gold membership.
