Oberhausen On Tour

The Curzon cinema, London

Short films travel far (schedule and list of films below)

On 3 January 2003 ”The Curzon” cinema in London will be the first stop for ”OBERHAUSEN ON TOUR”, for which six short film programs selected from the distribution archives of the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen will travel for 40 days through 16 European cities.

The Short Film Festival is presenting this tour of ten German cities and six neighbouring European countries in cooperation with renowned cinemas in cities such as Vienna, Zurich, Marseille, Brussels, Amsterdam, Berlin, Hamburg and Freiburg. During the tour the various programs will be screened in the host cinemas a total of 63 times. The festival has put together six varied programs out of its extensive distribution archive, compiled during the course of the festival’s nearly 50-year history. Four of the six programs - INTERNATIONAL FILM, INTERNATIONAL VIDEO, GERMAN and GERMAN CLIPS - consist of current works culled from the traditional festival competitions, as well as music videos that competed for the festival’s MuVi Award for the best German clip between 1999 and 2002. The two remaining programs, ROBERT VAN ACKEREN and EASTERN EUROPE, present older films from Eastern Europe and short works by Robert Van Ackeren.

THE PROGRAMS
The INTERNATIONAL FILM program, which will be shown the most often during the tour, features films from six countries in a wide variety of different genres. In these experimental works, animated films and dance films, documentaries and music videos from the Oberhausen International Competition one can discover both the humorous and the disturbing. INTERNATIONAL VIDEO, with award-winning works such as "11 de septiembre" by Claudia Aravena and "Cargo" by Laura Waddington, is the most political and experimental of the programs. The GERMAN program featuring award winners from the German Competition such as "Sportfrei" by Anna Klamroth, "Mexico City" by Christiane Lilge, and "Nebel" by the best-known German experimental filmmaker, Matthias Müller demonstrates that German film is not necessarily at its impressive best in the feature film mode, but rather when it sets out in more individual and unconventional directions. German music videos dedicated to raising the standard of pop culture can be found in the GERMAN CLIPS program, all of them candidates for the MuVi Awards from 1999 to 2002.

Another tour highlight is the EASTERN EUROPE program, showing, in addition to the Oscar-winning film Tango by Zbigniew Rybzynski, some of the most important works from socialist countries that have been screened in Oberhausen. They include films by directors Zelimir Zilnik, Karpo Godina and Jan Svankmajer. The works shown in the ROBERT VAN ACKEREN program were thought to be lost for almost 30 years and were publicly screened for the first time after their rediscovery at the 2001 Oberhausen Festival.

BIG SCREEN FOR THE SHORT FORM
The idea behind the tour is explained as follows by festival director Lars Henrik Gass: ”The Short Film Festival has purchased short films throughout its history, developing with time a unique archive. With "Oberhausen On Tour" we want to make some of the best Oberhausen films accessible to a wider audience, thus giving people the opportunity to discover short film on the big screen.” Accompanying the film screenings, Après Film evenings will take place in three locations following the German Clips program, on 25 January in Marseille and on 31 January in Brussels. Half-time for the tour on 7 February will be marked with the opportunity to relax and enjoy films, videos and music in a lounge at the Cologne Filmhaus.

As of 1 December a 24-page brochure will be available offering an overview of the tour schedule and programs. In addition to the brochure, which will be published in three languages, a poster will be produced announcing the tour. Information on ”Oberhausen On Tour” is also available on the Short Film Festival’s homepage at www.kurzfilmtage.de under the heading Short Film Exchange.
