Merry Christmas / Happy Christmas / Joyeux Noël (2005)
Drama | History | Music | Romance | War
In 1914, World War I, the bloodiest war ever at that time in human history, was well under way. However on Christmas Eve, numerous sections of the Western Front called an informal, and unauthorized, truce where the various front-line soldiers of the conflict peacefully met each other in No Man's Land to share a precious pause in the carnage with a fleeting brotherhood. This film dramatizes one such section as the French, Scottish and German sides partake in the unique event, even though they are aware that their superiors will not tolerate its occurrence.
Starring: Diane Kruger, Benno Fürmann, Guillaume Canet, Dany Boon, Gary Lewis, Daniel Brühl
Director: Christian Carion

Tom Sawyer (2011)
Adventure | Family
The traditional and widely read Mark Twain tale of two boys, Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, is given a refreshing revitalisation by noted German filmmaker Hermine Huntgeburth ("Die weiße Masai"). Beautifully shot in both Germany and Rumania, this timeless adventure story about children’s conflict with adults and the cultural tensions existing at the time make for an enjoyable film. Notable in the cast are Heike Makatsch and Benno Fürmann (the latter as an American Indian) in this delightfully distinctive German vision of the story.
Starring: Louis Hofmann, Leon Seidel, Heike Makatsch, Benno Fürmann, Joachim Król, Peter Lohmeyer
Director: Hermine Huntgeburth
