Schulfilmfestival BRITFILMS 2016
Liebe Lehrerinnen und Lehrer,
Ende Januar veranstalten wir erneut in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Filmkunsttheater-Verband Gilde/AG-Kino
das englischsprachige Schulfilmfestival BRITFILMS. Die Filme „touren“ durch die ganze Republik und machen in der Zeit ab 21.01.2016 bis Ende Februar Station in Rottenburg.
Der Eintrittspreis beträgt 3 Euro/Schüler. Begleitpersonen haben freien Eintritt. Abspieldatum und Beginn
der einzelnen Filme wird abgesprochen – wir wollen eine Vermischung von Schulklassen unterschiedlicher
Schulen vermeiden.
Weitere Informationen zu den Filmen und deren Inhalten sowie Altersempfehlungen können Sie den beiliegenden Texten entnehmen oder im Internet unter www.britfilms.de nachlesen. Unter der „BritfilmsHomepage“ finden Sie auch weiteres Unterrichtsmaterial (study guides).
Über Ihren Kinobesuch würden wir uns sehr freuen.
Bitte nehmen Sie mit uns Kontakt auf, entweder telefonisch (07472-22888) oder - bevorzugt - per mail an
[email protected] – und wir finden ganz sicher einen Termin für eine Schulvorstellung mit Ihrer Klasse
bzw. Ihren Klassen – eventuell und je nach Film auch noch nach dem 04.03.2015.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Elmar Bux

his suitcase and a red hat. Luckily, he meets the

WHALE RIDER is set in a small coastal town in
New Zealand. Twelve-year-old Pai is living with
her grandparents. The inquisitive girl asks her
grandfather Koro to teach her all there is to know
sy refugee in and names him “Paddington” after
the famous London train station. All would be
well, were it not for the evil taxidermist who is hot
on the trail of the little bear…
The new adaptation of the beloved children’s
classic by Michael Bond tells a warm-hearted
story of Paddington finding a new home with the
Browns. But PADDINGTON is also a contemporary tale of migration and new beginnings.

Though the McLeons are about to divorce they

in Scotland and present themselves as a pictureperfect family. The plan turns out to be a complete disaster. Filmed by directors Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin, who are known in England

WE DID ON OUR HOLIDAY is an original, largely improvised and often surprising comedy about
an ordinary family quarreling at every turn but
sticking together when it counts.

SELMA takes a look at the beginnings of the

civil rights act of 1960, which made it illegal to
obstruct the right to vote for African-Americans,
the South systematically prevents voters from
registering. After Dr. Martin Luther King’s acceptance of the Nobel Prize in Oslo, he decides
to travel to Selma, Alabama in order to demonstrate against this heinous discrimination. Alabama is a dangerous, racist terrain and soon there are casualties among supporters of the civil
rights movement.

at short notice, she jumps at the chance. In the

out of place at first, but with self-confidence and
quick wit she gets the better of snobby guests

is soon turning somersaults. A romantic comedy
packed with puns and a charming Felicity Jones
