Kobe (16+)

Germany, Japan, 2006, colour, 45 min.
Director: Rainer Komers
Kobe proposes an exploration of the city's particular habits, rhythms and gestures until it transforms immediate register into unfamiliar everyday life, in a constant zigzag between sociological observation and sudden poetry. The auction-scene at the fish market is proof of the unusual pace of a city which – as telling evidence of its vitality – regenerated itself following the unfortunate earthquake of January 17th, 1995.

AWARDS

Melting Pot Prize, Blicke aus dem Ruhrgebiet, Bochum.
