Monday Rent Boy begins in Somerset, England, in the mid-1980s, with the winning and heart-warming story of two 13-year-old friends and fellow altar boys, Arthur Barnes and Ernie Castlefrank. Endearing outcasts, they try not to speak of the secret tie that binds them: both boys are routinely preyed on by The Zipper, their nickname for Father Ziperto, the local Catholic priest. Still, they find adventure and release in the mischief they get up to together, as each also tries to survive in other ways.

Story
Vom Gehen und Ankommen. Wohin geht man, wenn man im Nirgendwo steht: zwischen zwei Ländern, zwischen nahen Erinnerungen und ferner Gegenwart, zwischen einem stets redenden Vater und einer schweigenden Mutter? Das Mädchen ist sechs, als sie die DDR verlässt und mit ihrer Familie ein neues Leben im äußersten Westen Deutschlands beginnt. Warten dort die Verheißungen, auf die ihre Eltern gehofft haben? Kann der Vater sich neu erfinden, wird die Mutter ihre Krankheit, aus DDR-Gefängnissen mitgebracht, überwinden? Das Kind sehnt sich nach der Großmutter im fernen Leipzig und lernt, wie die Aachener zu reden.

Story
Mia is telling me a story. It’s about a princess, who lives in a castle, on a street that bears a remarkable resemblance to ours. About a kind old lady who’s the queen. I’m distracted for a moment by her little hand softly slipping into mine. My daughter. My angel. But then she says something that pulls me from my reverie. She says that the queen doesn’t treat the princess well. She punishes her and doesn’t let her eat anything…Helen, my neighbour, has been so good to me. And more importantly, she’s so good with the children. Surely this is just another story of Mia’s, just make believe.

Story
In Der Lärm des Lebens erzählt Jörg Hartmann auf hinreißende Weise seine Geschichte und die seiner Eltern und Großeltern. Es ist eine Liebeserklärung an die Kraft der Familie – und an den Ruhrpott. Ob es um die Situation seiner gehörlosen Großeltern im Nationalsozialismus geht, das Leben seiner Mutter als Pommesbudenbesitzerin, die Demenzerkrankung seines Vaters, der Dreher und leidenschaftlicher Handballer war, die vielen skurrilen Erlebnisse in der Großfamilie oder um Schlüsselbegegnungen, die er als Schauspieler hatte – immer hält Hartmann die Balance zwischen Tragik und Komik.

Story
Eigentlich will Issa diese Reise gar nicht antreten. Schwanger sitzt sie im Flugzeug nach Douala, angetrieben von ihrer Mutter, die bei der bevorstehenden Geburt um das Leben ihrer Tochter fürchtet. In Kamerun, dem Land ihrer Kindheit, soll sie den heilsamen Weg der Rituale gehen, unter den Adleraugen ihrer Omas. Doch so einfach ist das alles gar nicht, wenn man in Frankfurt zu Schwarz und in Buea zu Deutsch ist. Der Besuch wird für Issa eine Auseinandersetzung mit der eigenen Familiengeschichte und der Gewissheit, dass sowohl Traumata als auch der unbedingte Liebens- und Lebenswille vererbbar sind.
