This quirky film tells the story of Fanny Fink, a death-obsessed airport security officer who is turning thirty. She says she doesn’t need a man but is nonetheless desperate to find one. Encouraged by a gay African "psychic" living in the same tenement block, she tries to get it on with her landlord, but things go awry.

  • Black Rider (Schwarzfahrer)

    Directed by Pepe Danquart.
    Germany, 1993, 16mm, black & white, 12 min.
    German with English subtitles.

Set on an old streetcar amid senior citizens, housewives, Turkish boys, and giggling teenage girls, Black Rider presents a lesson in racial tolerance with a humorous twist. A not-so-nice elderly woman torments her neighbor, a young black man, with provocative comments, and she finally comes to the usual conclusion: "That would never have happened back then."
