Ghosts of Germany’s Past Evoked in Venice Films ‘Riefenstahl,’ ‘September 5’
From Leni Reifenstahl to Munich Olympics, the German past is present in Venice.
Another much-anticipated film, Tim Fehlbaum ’s Munich summer 1972 Olympics feature “September 5,” is playing in the Horizons Extra competition section. Two German co-productions are screening in the main competition – Athina Rachel Tsangari’s “Harvest,” adapted from the prize-winning book of the same name about an unnamed English village that seems to exist in neither time nor place – before it disappears for ever. Others already announced include “Edge of Night” by Türker Süer; “Seven Days” by Amil Samadi Ahadi, and “The Sunset Special 2” by Nicolas Gebbe.
