Program flow
6:30 PM — Introduction Presentation by Weavii
Dalila Cataldi and Fabio Muroni from Weavii will introduce the event and welcome the audience.
6:45 PM — Short film Premiere
“Antropico” by Matheo Fernandes (a Brazilian Film Director)
First Official Public Screening of “Antropico”
More about Matheo Fernandes: https://matheofernandes.com/
About “Antropico”:
In an indigenous land threatened by the presence of white settlers, Maria, an eighty-year-old artisan, confronts the pain of losing her husband. Months after his death, she awakens from a deep lethargy and decides to paint. Determined to overcome her existential near-death, Maria channels her sorrow into creating a work that may be one of her last ones.
This project was made possible with the support of the Brazilian Government, through the Ministry of Culture, with resources from the Paulo Gustavo Law (Lei Paulo Gustavo 2024).
7:15 PM — Short presentation by The Yaaba Film Company
Geronimo Coiro, Akvile Dubinskaite and Emre ACI will introduce The Yaaba Film Company to the audience. Ok
7:30 PM — Official screening
“M” by Fritz Lang – Eine Stadt sucht einen Mörder (DE with EN subtitles)
Geronimo Coiro of The Yaaba Film Company will lead audiences into the unsettling world of Fritz Lang’s M, examining the moral, social, and psychological questions Lang sought to confront through the film. The discussion will explore what Lang expected audiences to wrestle with after leaving the cinema—particularly the private, uneasy conversations about justice, guilt, collective responsibility, and the nature of evil that M provokes.
Special attention will be given to Lang’s groundbreaking use of sound, narrative structure, and visual design in M, including his innovative approach to off-screen space, silence, and parallel editing, all of which deepen the film’s ethical tension. Geronimo will engage with M as if in a real-time dialogue with Fritz Lang, treating the film as an active conversation—questioning its assumptions, responding to its provocations, and tracing how its ideas continue to resonate with contemporary audiences.
The film encourages us to compare the past and the present, revealing both social change and enduring themes that continue to resonate today.
9:30 PM — Discussion & open exchange with the audience
Delicious Italian food will be provided to keep you well nourished for a great night of film! Drinks will also be available to purchase on site.

**Event Info:**
Bring along your **current book to read** (or something **creative** to work on 📚🎨🧵) and join us for this mix of a shared focus time + discussion.
\- 19:00\-19:30 \- Meet & greet
\- 19:30\-20:30 \- Silent focus time
\- 20:30 \- Discussion of books/ projects over coffee

* **Attendance here doesn’t show all sign-ups from other platforms.**
***FAQ: Why does it cost money if I bring my own project?***
Because we rent a beautiful, central space for every event. Ever thought your monthly apartment rent was too high? Well, multiply that – that’s what commercial spaces in big cities like Berlin cost *per hour*.
Of course, if all you want is just some quiet time, your home or a library is perfect. But if you’d like to focus & connect with others in an inspiring space – with drinks, snacks included – that’s what your ticket helps to cover.

Zeit für Deutsch - German Movie Screening + Language Practice 🇩🇪
Movie Lovers,
ReSee and the Zeitgeist Zentrum are teaming up for another edition of Zeit für Deutsch, our monthly, donation-based movie event taking place at the Zeitgeist Zentrum Sprachschule in Wedding.
At each event, we'll screen a different German language film and spend a little time before and after the movie chatting amongst each other, speaking as much or as little German as you'd like, and just coming together as a community for a relaxed, low-pressure movie night.
This time around we're showing a classic German thriller taking place all around Berlin. It follows a woman named who needs to obtain 100.000 marks in 20 minutes to save the life of her boyfriend. You know the one - but if you've never seen it, now's your chance!
• Doors open at 2:30pm
• Film starts at 3pm
• Guests are encouraged to stick around and speak a little German after, but there's no pressure. This is 95% fun, 5% German practice :)
Space is limited, so grab a spot and mark your calendars. Donations are also welcome at the door. RSVP on Luma to reserve your spot: https://luma.com/6bswkqh1
We hope to see you there 💜

**Then you should join us!**
We meet every Sunday. It’s important to us that we get to know each other in person. To create a community of connected people, work, learn and grow together. For film making you need a crew of reliable people with a positive can-do-attitude. This is the place to find them.
Together, we will talk about these topics:

* What you you would like to learn
This is event is great for:
* filmmakers
* movie nerds
* writers
* camera operators
* editors
* actors
* sound recorders

**Important information**:
*To sustain and grow this amazing community, we started a member contribution that is due every month. The money we collect is used solely for the purpose of the community. Of course you can come once or twice without contributing to check us out!*

Screenwriting Focus Group | Filmmakers & Movie Nerds
**🎬 Screenwriters' Meetup Invitation 🎬**
This meetup is for anyone passionate about storytelling—whether you’re a screenwriter, filmmaker, producer, or someone with a great idea looking for the right collaborators. Whether you’re just starting out or deep into your screenplay, this is the perfect space to create, collaborate, and refine your work.
**When You Bring Your Screenplay, Think About Three Key Ingredients:**
1. **Your Main Character** – Who are they? What drives them?
2. **The Central Conflict** – What’s at stake? What’s standing in their way?
3. **The Theme** – What’s the deeper idea that motivates you to tell this story?
If you’re struggling to find a theme, define your character, or establish a strong conflict—don’t worry. That’s exactly what this meetup is for. We’re here to help you uncover the core of your story and give you the tools to develop it further.
Already have an elaborate story? Great! Reflect on these elements:
* **Compelling Characters** – Are they layered, dynamic, and memorable?
* **Inner Conflicts, Interpersonal Tensions, and Global Stakes** – Does your story operate on multiple levels?
* **A Strong, Personal Theme** – Does your theme resonate with you and give your story purpose?
If you can identify these elements, we can dive even deeper and give you focused, constructive feedback to help your screenplay reach its full potential.
Bring your ideas, your drafts, and your passion. Let’s collaborate, challenge each other, and create stories that matter. We can’t wait to see you there!
Lets Discuss Princess Mononoke (Hayao Miyazaki, 1997)
This time we will be discussing Princess Monoke by Hayao Miyazaki which runs in the cinemas :
https://m.imdb.com/de/title/tt0119698/
We’re a group of people who enjoy films and talking about films. We meet on Sunday in a cafe/bar and have a relaxed discussion about the film. We talk about how we felt about the film, and what we liked or disliked about it.
Don't forget to watch the film before joining the meetup :)

Fun Friday: EPiC: ELVIS PRESLEY IN CONCERT at Lennox Phoenix Theater!
Join us for something different as we get together to see EPIC: ELVIS PRESLEY IN CONCERT! While researching his 2022 film, director Bas Luhrmann came across and compiled rare and previously unseen interviews and videos of Elvis in concert to create “one of the most exciting concert films you’ve ever seen!” Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event:
DESCRIPTION: Part documentary, part concert film, the latest from director Bas Luhrmann is a follow-up to his 2022 film starring Austin Butler.

A combination of offstage and onstage Elvis, comes a film that “befits the magnitude of Elvis as a performer but also offers deeper revelations of his humanity and inner life."

TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmqWusmzp0k

Next Best Picture says, “Certain to energize longtime fans and generate new ones for generations to come, EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert is a masterwork of montage.” And according to the NY Post, whether you have a room in the house devoted to Elvis or not, this truly “Epic” concert film is an energizing experience!”
PLAN: We’ll plan for a pre-show bite at nearby BRAVO around 5 or 5:30pm followed by a 7pm-ish showing on one of their larger screens. Once showtime is announced, advance ticket purchase is advised. Please list your seat number in the Comments below. Exact showtime and meeting details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer.
