Colourful films

In the frenzy of all intermingled colour dramaturgies

Pippilotta Viktualia Rollgardina Pfefferminz Efraimstochter Langstrumpf, Pippi Longstocking for short, lives in the Villa Kunterbunt - and makes the world just the way she likes it, above all: colourful! While individual colours each achieve very special effects and their own moods, something "colourful" radiates the abundant, exuberant luxury of all impressions and sensations. Then often everything in the cinema is colourful like in the Hollywood musical, multi-coloured or multicoloured, because bright and pure colours intermingle and shine with maximum colour saturation - like in the spectrum or in the rainbow behind which little Dorothy from Arkansas discovers the magic land of Oz. A rainbow is more than "just" a colourful natural spectacle: Time and again it has fulfilled special meanings in human cultural history, shining as a pictorial motif in paintings as well as in films. The symbolic meaning of "colourful" is rich and ranges from the New Age movement to the "rainbow press" to the queer rainbow flag. The films in our collection are also colourful! Let us surprise and inspire you.
