2 Pack of Films: 2pm KEEP SURFING & 4:30pm INTERN FOR LIFE- German Gems 2011
See two back to back movies! start with KEEP SURFING at 2pm & INTERN FOR LIFE at 4:30pm

Saturday 2 pm  KEEP SURFING (Germany 2009, 35mm, 91 min. In German with English subtitles)
DIR Björn Richie Lob   PRINT SOURCE Beta Films    FESTIVALS Munich, Tribecca, Hawaii


Björn Richie Lob's exhilarating film debut took 10 years to complete. An avid river-surfer himself, he spent years convincing his friends to be on camera. The result is a kinetic and fast-paced documentary that will put you right on the Eisbach in the heart of Munich, the river-surfing mecca of the world. The film is a portrait of six surfers, among them river-surfing pioneer Dieter "The Eater," who still rides the waves every day with his two grown daughters, and Walter, "The Janitor of the Eisbach," a working-class philosopher who actually figured out how to keep the waves surging for 24 hours a day.
Stunningly shot on various formats, including 16mm and 35mm, KEEP SURFING displays an ode to going against the wave, to individual freedom, and to the people who have achieved happiness on a river wave. With cameos by surfing legends like Nick Carroll and Kelly Slater.

Q&A with Björn Richie Lob (director)

Saturday 4:30 pm  INTERN FOR LIFE Ein Praktikant fürs Leben (Germany 2010, digital, 90 min. In German with English subtitles)
DIR Ingo Rasper CAST Roman Knizka, Anna Brüggemann, August Zirner, Franziska Walser


Ben Kremer has been an intern for 3 years at the same company and hopes it will eventually lead to a paid position with them. So far he has heard nothing but empty promises. To make ends meet, he works as a bartender at night where he meets Jana, the receptionist of another big company. They hit it off and when he applies for a job at her company he again ends up as an intern. By accident though, Ben meets the boss of the company who offers him a job as his personal assistant, a promotion but also a step in the wrong direction. Now Ben has to pour drinks at parties, take care of his boss' tipsy wife and even of the young woman his boss is dating secretly. That woman turns out to be Jana…
Ingo Rasper (FASHION VICTIMS) returns to the Castro with another delightful comedy, perhaps inspired by his own internship at the Goethe-Institut in San Francisco.

Q&A with Ingo Rasper (director)
