Silent Friend
In the organizer's words:
Today's screening is in the following version: German with German subtitles.
“An open, quiet, humorous film.” Die Zeit
“Silent Friend evokes a sensual connection between humans and nature. A captivating cinematic poem.” Frankfurter Rundschau
At the heart of the botanical garden in the medieval university town of Marburg stands a majestic ginkgo tree. For over a hundred years, it has been a silent witness and observer of quiet, profound changes in the lives of three people.
In the shade of this tree, director Ildikó Enyedi weaves together three stories from different eras in her film: In 2020, a neuroscientist from Hong Kong dares to conduct an unusual experiment with the ancient tree.In 1972, a young student undergoes an inner transformation—triggered by his intense observation of a simple geranium on the university campus. In 1908, the university’s first female student pursues her passion for photography—and discovers the hidden patterns of the universe through the lens of her camera.
