From the 25th November to the 29th November, the third edition of the German Film Days will take place at the Vega Scene in Oslo. The programme is a colourful mix of German-language films that are entertaining, challenging, emotional, moving, aesthetic and educational. This year, two Swiss co-productions will be screened: "The Universal Theory", from Timm Kröger, and "Blind at Heart", from Barbara Albert. 

"Blind at Heart"

After WWII, Helene is ready to do anything to start a new life. As a young woman, she came to the exciting Berlin of the roaring 20s, wanting to become a doctor, and soon fell in love with a man named Karl. But the course of her life took a drastic, irreversible turn when the Nazis came into power

Barbara Albert's film adaptation of Julia Franck's bestseller, which won the German Book Prize, is a stirring homage to female physicality and self-empowerment.

German Film Days is a presentation and celebration of new German films shown for the first time on a cinema screen in Oslo. The German Film Days are organised by Goethe-Institut Norway in collaboration with Vega Scene and German Films, and in partnership with the German Embassy in Oslo.

The screening will take place on the 27th November at 18h00 at Vega Scene. More information on the screening and tickets can be found here.
