Successful cinema premiere of "Youth Outcry"
With "Youth Outcry", Berlin director Kathrin Pitterling is bringing a breath of fresh air to the climate discourse, just in time for the climate conference.

"Youth Outcry" in the cinema
In 2020, Corona shook world affairs. The climate crisis? Repressed from the public discourse! But the young activists of Fridays for Future are not backing down. Director Kathrin Pitterling has captured their most daring and vulnerable moments in her documentary film "Youth Outcry" and tells of the dreams, fears, successes and setbacks of a committed generation. Now, just in time for the Climate Change Conference (COP 26), the award-winning ARD production (including "Top of the Docs") is bringing a breath of fresh air to the climate discourse. On 28 October 2021, "Youth Outcry" will be released exclusively in cinemas as a director's cut distributed by W-film.
"An Uncertain Border" from 26 November on DVD and VOD
"An Uncertain Border" is available on DVD and as VOD in the W-film Shop and in regular stores from 26 November. The film was released on 25 May during the lockdown in the W-film online cinema with solidarity revenue sharing for the closed cinemas. Director Isabella Sandri tells the gripping story of a child abduction as a genre mix between psychological thriller and outsider ballad, whose motifs are reminiscent of Kubrick's "Lolita" and Fellini's "La Strada"! Highly topical, because child abuse in cyberspace and grooming are unfortunately still a sad reality! Great cast with Cannes award winner Cosmina Stratan ("Beyond the Hills"), young actress Anna Malfatti in her first cinema role and Moisé Curia.
