GUARANTEED ENLIGHTENMENT: DORIS DÖRRIE FILMS
Following the international box office success of her 1985 breakthrough comedy MÄNNER (MEN), writer, director and producer Doris Dörrie has become one of Germany's best-known filmmakers. This series of six films provides a sampling of Dörrie's extensive filmography, with a special focus on films she made in Japan.
As unconventional and determined as many of the characters in her films, Dörrie, a collector of stories, is often described as a "Chonicler of the present," who is unafraid of placing her characters in sometimes bewildering situations in which they have no choice but to reinvent themselves.
All films are in German with English Subtitles.
Written and Directed by: Doris Dörrie, Germany, 2005, 104 min. German with English subtitles, digital. Starring: Alexandra Maria Lara, Christian Ulmen, Simon Verhoeven, Young-Shin Kim
