Goethe!
Director: Philip Stölzl, colour | 1 hour 44 mins | 2010
1772: The 23-year-old law student, Johann Wolfgang Goethe, flunks his oral exams. His angry father sends him to the Imperial High Court in Wetzlar. Goethe, who dreams of a career as a poet and has to digest the rejection of his play Götz von Berlichingen, falls in love with Charlotte Buff. But her father has already promised her to another man. Goethe reacts to his misfortune by writing The Sorrows of Young Werther— and overnight, the novel makes him the new star of German literature.
19:00 to 20:45
Lawns
Mahler on the Couch
Director : Percy Adlon & Felix Adlon, colour | 1 hour 45 mins | 2010
In the summer of 1910, Gustav Mahler travels to Holland to consult with Sigmund Freud. His wife Alma is having an affair with the young architect Walter Gropius, leaving the celebrated composer at a loss. The psychoanalyst has to help him and in doing so, forces Mahler to come round to some painful insights.
21:00 to 23:14
Lawns
Beloved Sisters
Director: Dominik Graf, colour | 2 hours 14 mins | 2012-2014
1788: Charlotte von Lengefeld, the daughter of an impoverished noble family in Thuringia, has returned from Weimar to her hometown, Rudolstadt– mainly to the delight of her unhappily married sister, Caroline of Beulitz. The two girls had once vowed to share everything. One day, Friedrich Schiller, who has been expelled from Württemberg, appears in Rudolstadt, and the two sisters take their oath seriously. They begin a love triangle, which benefits from Charlotte’s marriage to the poet. But this lifestyle turns out to be fragile. Dominik Graf’s film is a mix of documented fact and fiction; a private utopia can be just as difficult to achieve as the political situation unfolding in the background – the French Revolution.
