ICH FÜHLE MICH GESUND
Rising Stars Falling Stars 4 year anniversary was a smashing success. The screening of Prix de Beaute´starring Louise Brooks was phenomenal thankx to the musical accompanyment of the great Eunice Martin on klavier. After the screening the reception was at the CHEAP Gossip Studio circular bar in the atrium of the Filmhaus. Seen schmoozing and having a grand olde time:Arsenal Empress Stefanie Schulte Strathaus who will be leaving for Kiev and Cairo soon spreading the gospel of experimental film around the known and unknown world, Uli Ziemons of Forum Expanded, Nanna Heidenreich of Arsenal Experimental, Nadja Talmi of Haus of Culture de Welt, Marietta Kesting of bbooks, Katja Maja aka: Katja von Hellendorf with Cristian Forte of the rock bands Piss Göttin and Leiseylento, exotic male model Dudley O´Shaughnessy, artist Maggie Schneider, legendary prima ballerina Beatrice "Trixie" Cordua, sexy French chanteuse Zazie de Paris, Manuel Schubert of Film Highlights Internet Radio Magazine, Tielemachos Alex who did the makeup and hair for Ms. Davis who was wearing a striking Rick Owens gown, film historian Marc Siegel, Daniel Hendrickson the Jewish Muslim and Darryl Els, the personable South Afrikan film programmer who leaves Berlin soon to return to Johannisberg. Mr. Els wants to bring the CHEAP kollective to his country, and I think that would be a splendid idea.
