We are happy to invite you to the next installment of the ArtHouse Cinema programme on Tuesday, the 17th of July. This time we will be screening the German film “Almanya – Welcome to Germany”.

Am I German or am I Turkish? This is a question that the charming and warm film “Almanya” addresses. Hüseyin Yilmaz came from Turkey to Germany in 1964, later his wife and children joined. With a big sense of humor, his granddaughter recounts their family history – whilst the clan is “back home” on holiday. When going on holiday they realize that none of them can really answer where their real “home” is. The film is an extraordinary contribution to the current German debate on integration, played out by two young women who were able to weave their personal experiences into the story. Depicting identities that evolve slowly, the film reflects on the difficult question of what we call “home” – a question for which there are many different answers.
