Love at First Sight
Directorial Debuts from the Collection (Part 2)
May 30 to June 29, 2026
Following the first part of this Collection on Screen, in which we presented 47 first films from our collection in March and April (ranging from von Stroheim, Sternberg, Buñuel, Vigo and Welles over Kurosawa, Chabrol, Wiseman, Cassavetes, Akerman and Lynch to Jarmusch, Kitano, Panahi, Grisebach and Alonso), we will now show more debuts on gorgeous film prints. This time the selection spans from the 1950s (Daniel Taradash's sole directorial credit) to the early 2000s (with directorial debuts by Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, Miranda July, Marianne Satrapi, Sandrine Bonnaire, and Mia Hansen-Løve). In between lie decades of upheaval and counter-culture (Edgar Reitz, Bob Rafelson, John Cook, Jim Jarmusch), the discovery of new filmic continents (Suzana Amaral, Claire Denis), and the cinematic spectrum of the 1990s on this side (Milčo Mančevski, Susanne Ofteringer, Sandrine Veysset, Hettie MacDonald) and that side of the Atlantic (Todd Haynes, Robert Rodriguez, Kevin Smith). (Andrea Pollach / Translation: Ted Fendt)
Introductions by Christoph Huber at selected screenings.
