Open Air Kino: Prinzessin Mononoke

Japan 1997, 133 min., German dub, FSK 12, Director: Hayao Miyazaki, Anime 

When the young prince Ashitaka is cursed by a wild boar possessed by demons, he leaves his village in search of a cure. Along the way, he meets San—Princess Mononoke—a girl raised by wolves who supports the forest animals in their fight against human attacks. In this Studio Ghibli classic, director Hayao Miyazaki uses powerful imagery to explore themes of environmental destruction and the coexistence of nature and humans.

Open-Air Cinema in the Garden

When the summer sun slowly sets and the air is still warm, it’s finally time for open-air cinema in the E‑Werk garden. Grab your favorite people, kick back in a lounge chair, and enjoy movies in a relaxed setting under the starry sky. 

Unless otherwise noted, we show all films in the German dubbed version. Look forward to a lovingly curated mix of timeless classics and arthouse gems.  
 
The garden opens at 6 p.m.—perfect for arriving early, taking a deep breath, and getting in the mood. As soon as the sun goes down, your movie experience begins. 

We’ve got everything you need to go with it: cool drinks and really great fries to make your summer evening complete.
