SOLIDARITY

DOCUMENTARY MOVIE [in Preproduction] BY DAVID BERNET

What is solidarity in times of upheaval between globalization and isolationism? Four intertwined stories reveal conflicting realities of what solidarity really is: one of the most precious human principles but also a catalyst for hate and violence.
In this documentary we are following four different stories. Everyone of the protagonists is driven by their own strong idea of solidarity

DEMOCRACY

DOCUMENTARY BY DAVID BERNET

„DEMOCRACY“ opens the doors to a sheer impenetrable world and accompanies the political fight for a new data protection law in the EU.
A captivating and highly charged story about a group of politicians, trying to protect society from the dangers of Big Data and mass surveillance in a digital world. The Member of Parliament Jan Philipp Albrecht and Commissioner Viviane Reding attempt the impossible and decide to confront a tough political power structure, where intrigue, success and failure are so close together. David Bernet spent two and a half years accompanying the legislation process and condensed it into an astonishing documentary that depicts the state of today’s democracy with suspense and sensuality.

BEING KOSHER
NICHT GANZ KOSHER

DOCUMENTARY BY RUTH OLSHAN

A comic-tragic exploration of Jewish rituals of purity.
In a figurative sense, “kosher” means “pure”. Ruth Olshan applies the Jewish tradition of examining the purity of things to her own family history : from kosher meals, ritual personal hygiene, sex that conforms to the rules on up to the filmmaker’s “not quite kosher” Jewish identity. It’s a documentary journey into the author’s Eastern European past and the current Jewish life in Germany – in search of a kosher label for herself.
