Aus der Jurybegründung:

Mit viel Geduld, Beständigkeit und Empathie öffnet Mein Vietnam die Tür in einen kleinen, vermeintlich unspektakulären Raum, in dem eine Familie, aber auch eine Gesellschaft und auf eine Art die ganze Welt geborgen ist.

 

The FIRST STEPS AWARD is the leading German Newcomer Award founded by Bernd Eichinger and Nico Hofmann and is sponsored by the German Film Academy , UFA , Amazon Studios, Warner Bros., Studio Hamburg, Seven-One Entertainment Group. Every year it awards young filmmakers in 9 categories for their films.

 

German Films in collaboration with the Marché du Film Cannes selected 4 up- and coming german producers who are working on their first feature film to take part in Coaching Sessions at this years Marché du Film in Cannes. Leopold Pape will be part with our upcoming feature film "Tal der Könige" that is in co-production with ZDF Das Kleine Fernsehspiel , Port au Prince Films and Elemag Pictures.

 

 "Die liebevolle Hommage funktioniert letztlich exemplarisch für eine ganze Generation an Arbeitern und Arbeiterinnen, die für eine bessere Zukunft ihre Heimat verlassen haben, und zwischen zwei Welten, zwei Kulturen und auch verschiedenen Wünschen hin und hergerissen ist."

 

"Im Rahmen des „Fifty-Fifty”-Nachwuchsprogramms von MDM und ZDF/Das kleine Fernsehspiel entsteht Tim Ellrichs intensives Spielfilmdebüt „Tal der Könige”, das ungeschönt von der Ohnmacht im Umgang mit einem schizophrenen Familienmitglied erzählt. Als sich die Eltern der 57-jährigen Holle nicht mehr um ihren Bruder Sven kümmern können, droht das fragile Familienkonstrukt zu zerbrechen (Elemag Pictures, 300.000 Euro)."

 

"In an effort to bring together as much talent from the field of filmmaking as possible, the Zurich Film Festival has been running the ZFF Academy (formerly ZFF Master Class) since 2006. Each year, aspiring producers, directors and/or screenwriters from around the world are chosen from hundreds of applicants to take part in this 5-day talent promotion programme."

 

"Am 14. Oktober 2021 startet die 21. Staffel der SWR Reihe "Junger Dokumentarfilm" im SWR Fernsehen. Bis 04. November sind vier Filme von Absolvent:innen der Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg zu sehen. Die Filmemacher:innen der diesjährigen Staffel erzählen - jede/r auf seine/ihre Art - Geschichten von Menschen, die ihre Heimat verloren haben, aufgeben mussten, oder vielleicht nie eine hatten."

"Unfolding purely in a cinéma vérité style, Mein Vietnam evocatively captures the monotony, loneliness and boredom of living in a society that you don’t really feel like a part of."

 

 

 

  • MEIN VIETNAM Review by KinoCulture Montreal - Read the full article HERE

"With Mein Vietnam, Tim Ellrich and Thi Hien Mai offer a tender ode to the migratory phenomenon of the last decades of the 20th century. At the same time subtle and playful while distancing itself from sensationalism and unnecessary pathos."
