Further information about the film "Fallen Angels"
In Hong Kong, a city characterised by complete sensory overload of every kind, two completely different storylines come together. Wong Chi-Ming is a contract killer whose past relationship ignites a flame in him; he wants to get out of the business. The silent and expressive Ho Chi Mo is a petty criminal who pursues a no less unusual profession. He forces goods from shops he has previously broken into onto unsuspecting residents of the city. One night he meets Cherry, who immediately enchants him and with whom he embarks on a dreamy quest in the darkness of the night.
Programme for the 2024 summer semester: "CineCity"
The student-run arthouse cinema "Lichtblick" has been organising a film series in the Pollux cinema every semester since 2003, showing selected classics, cult films and curiosities. The new programme for the 2024 summer semester, "CineCity", focuses on the city in film. Whether realistically documented or fantastically staged, the big city exerts a special fascination for film. The urbanisation of the 20th century led to the emergence of a mass culture in which cinema also played its part. But the big city and film are also intrinsically linked. Industry, fast means of transport and a high population density characterise the city as a place of acceleration.
Further information and the complete programme can be found on the website of the "Lichtblick" arthouse cinema.
