- During the 1980s in the German industrial Ruhrgebiet a young man takes up acting lessons at his private teacher's house. One day he finds out something unsettling: looking out the window in his teacher's living room for a brief moment only he sees his teacher's homeland Israel. Today, thirty years on, the former student - under the impression of the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East - is packing up his bags and traveling to Israel to pursue his teacher's traces. He is carrying his teacher's house folded up as excess baggage - it is going to be installed in the foreign landscape of Israel: a room for remembrance, a border between home and away, a house as well as a landscape. The autobiographical film is a montage of documentary and fictional material. It is retracing the acting student's path from thirty years ago and accompanying today's search for his teacher's trajectory. Joseph Millo, in 1944, was the founder of the Cameri Theatre in Tel Aviv. The search makes us witness many encounters between the student and people who knew his teacher in Germany and Israel. It focuses on questions about the meaning of home, of tradition - and of the power of Performing Arts.
- The System Is You. Monologues in Crisis. Three generations talk about their fears and their utopian visions. A youth hostel is about to be sold. A situation shortly before the tipping point, in which one's own fears suddenly coincide with other people's experiences of crises. Memories emerge and the house community begins to develop imaginary worlds. Visions of the future are born that try to resist the mechanics of an ongoing historiography. Does history become more tangible in a crisis? In a situation of uncertainty, is it easier to develop utopias during creative processes? Against the background of the perceived lack of opportunities, this group is struggling for answers - with very different strategies.
