EXOTICORE: From the point of view of "the others" EXOTICORE shows us emotionally what it means to be different. The diverse possibilites of how we perceive ourselves and how this is done by our environment are mixed up with each other and, sometimes, overstep the borders between fantasy and reality. Thereby not only the protagonists and the stories are exotic, but also the style and the making of the seven short films. At the end always remains the question: What difference does it make? Drama.

BRAZIL INSIDE: The BRAZIL INSIDE compilation consists of two documentary films, a drama and a comedy. The Brazilian directors reflect in their films the imaginative screenland of Brazil and the Brazilian mulifaced lifestyle. The shortfilm programm tells about the diversity of the biggest Latin American state while the spectator is taken along within the different live-in world of the Brazilian. They reflect limits and extremes as well as hope and humor of the Brazilian people. |

YOUNG , FRESH, IN LOVE: The tales feature how difficult and easy at the same time life can be if someone has at least one of these three attributes. Because of love women do crazy things. On that score the young and fresh characters in these four short films are true experts. They demonstrate that they have ingenuity, strength, emotions and especially a big heart.
Newcomers like the
"First Steps Award" winner Christine Wiederkehr, Sven
Taddicken ("Emma´s Luck"), Sören Voigt, Saskia Jell and
Kaat Beels surprise the viewer with their films

GOOD TIMES:
The seven short films introduce us good times on emotions like hope,
love, trouble and joy. At the same time the short film programme plays
with the unexpected, ironical turnarounds which good times often
bring along. How often our senses play tricks on ourselves because of
good times and how we stand in our own way is featured by these short films.
The films of this compilation ask whether we can always trust our eyes
and ears, because sometimes a good time blocks the clear view on reality.

After the great
start of NIGHT OF THE SHORTS in Hungary in
2005, the international
short film label comes once again to Hungarian cinemas in cooperation
with Szimpla Film Kft. Last year NIGHT OF THE SHORTS
reached a total of 3.500
viewers in
this small country
with its internationally acclaimed short film programme
EUROPEAN AWARDS
.
This time W-film Film Distribution wants to top its output: from 16th of March Hungarian audiences will experience the creative world of German short films with the GERMAN SHORT PIECES. The 7 creative German short film productions will start in cinemas in Budapest and cinemas close to the city. They will show the young as well as the experienced stars of German cinema such as Jasmin Tabatabai, Franka Potente and Walter Giller on the big screen.
The protagonists of the films must fight in a charming way with problems that are not only typically German but also universal. The short films demonstrate different ways of the German language and culture in their own way. Besides that they show important historical and also present ways of life in Germany.
The GERMAN SHORT PIECES belong to the Country Special of the NIGHT OF THE SHORTS, with which W-film connects entertainment with cultural ambition. The film distribution encourages with this short film programme especially German productions and offers popular filmmakers such as Frank Griebe and Natja Brunkhorst (directors of LA MER) and talented newcomers such as Edina Kontsek (DER SCHÜLER, German Shortfilm Prize 2003) the possibility of presenting themselves abroad.
