What Director Craig Brewer (FOOTLOOSE, HUSTLE & FLOW, BLACK SNAKE MOAN, POOR & HUNGRY) says about the Hollywood Film Festival®

It was a fantastic experience. Probably one of the best of my life,” said director Craig Brewer (FOOTLOOSE, HUSTLE & FLOW, BLACK SNAKE ...

Best ever: „Maradona by Kusturica” (Spain, 2008) and „Fimpen” (Sweden, 1973) won at „11mm” Soccer Film Festival in Berlin

In Germany we say: „Fußball ist die schönste Nebensache der Welt“ (an English translation could be: „Football is the nicest minor matter in the world”). Others are sometimes more radical – like the Scottish ex-player Bill Shankly: Is football a matter of life and death? „I am very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that.” For sure is that soccer has I side, which is no laughing matter &nda...

Pain and absolution: „The two Escobars” about drug money and football in Colombia at the „11 mm” Soccer Film Festival

1989 will be remembered forever in history books as the year, when the Berlin wall came down. `Cause of this revolutionary event and his results, it´s almost forgotten what happened in other parts of the world at the same time. In Colombia, for example, the so called „drug war“ has been on his heights. Responsible for this, as the majority will respond, has been solely one person: Pablo Escobar, the „patrón“ of the Medellín Cartel. A namesake, who c...

Shady sides and happiness: The 10th edition of the „11mm” Soccer Film Festival in Berlin, 14th to 19th of march 2013

Winner or loser? To think only in this categories, that´s the cruel side of sport – not only of the professional. If you see the documentary „The Other Final” (Netherlands 2003, directed by Johan Kramer) you may think more about this dichotomy. It has been parallel to the Soccer World Cup final between Brazil and Germany in 2002, that a Dutch guy (after he was reflecting more about the meaning of losing ´cause the Netherlands didn´t qualify for the WC) orga...

What, if...? „The Lost World Cup” about the forgotten Football Championship in Patagonia 1942 at the „11mm” Soccer Film Festival

All soccer fans know these moments of „What would have happened, when...?“. If the normally so brilliantly playing defender of the own team, would have attended better, yes, then… Take, for example, the Champions League final from 1999: After 90 minutes Bayern Munich had a 1-0 lead. But ManU scored two goals within three minutes in injury time and won with 2-1. If ManU-striker Ole-Gunnar Solskjær would have guarded better, then... The Italian-Argentine film „Th...
