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 💜

Join our A1–A2 German practice group where learning is fun and interactive! We meet to play simple language games, practice everyday conversations, and build confidence in speaking German. Perfect for beginners who want to improve in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Let’s learn, laugh, and sprechen together! Just you have to order one drink in this cafe :)

(Inside event) Are you learning a language but can't find people to practice with? Do you enjoy helping people speak your native language? If so, meet with us to make friends and have some good conversations. We begin by sharing the languages we speak fluently and the ones we are learning. Then we split into groups and speak! You can switch groups as often as you'd like. The goal is to speak about interesting, thought-provoking topics - not just the typical introductions we usually make. At our last meetups we spoke: German, Ukranian, English, French, Hebrew, Russian, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Hindi, Chinese, Greek, Japanese, Turkish, Polish, Swedish, Arabic, Norwegian, Icelandic, and Dutch. Can you help us make this list bigger? We hope to see you there and welcome ANY and ALL languages. (However, we cannot guarantee we will have a speaking partner for all languages). Looking forward to see you all! 😁

Nice! You are looking for real long time friendship! You might have already lived in Berlin or other big cities and experienced the "Anonymous" culture for a while. Meeting random people over and over and never see the same person again! In order to find "Real Long Term Friendship" in Berlin, do as follows: * You should not care how many people are joining this meetup. You RVSP. Even if only one person is joining. Because if everyone are waiting for everyone else to RVSP, nobody joins and nobody finds a new friend. * You do not care how many people of the opposite sex are joining. You are looking for friends. Finding the best romantic partner in the world, while avoiding not very attractive others, can be your other goal, for another time. Here we are looking for Friends. Real ones. * You are going to risk a very precious property of yours: Your time! Yes, there are thousands of opportunities in Berlin, there might be a rock concert for free, a birthday party you might miss, an important person might call you and invite you spontaneously, but you never find new friends until you decide to risk your time and meet people anyway. "I will check my calendar and get back to you" also does not work. Commit your time and spend it. Trust me, you won't go bankrupt ;-) * You are ready to use your phone as a real phone! You might have been using your phone as a tablet to visit Instagram and Facebook and watch movies. But if you want to find friends, you must know that people might take your phone number and give you theirs. That means they will Call you! And you have to pick up the phone and answer it. If you want to find new friends, you must be ready to do something really hard for the first time after years: Call people first, and if they called you: Answer your phone! * You are going to meet some people twice! That's the point of friendship. We already can experience random encounters with random people in random places one at a time. But that is not called friendship. If you want friends, you must be ready to meet the same person more than once. If you agree with above, RVSP and COME! You will meet other people who think the same way. P.S: Now that you've read all the way down to here, I suggest you [watch this animation](https://player.vimeo.com/video/547249272?h=22f3dd0f6f).
