Lametta fĂĽr alle, TĂĽrchen 23
Das zweitletzte Türchen des diesjährigen kulturellen Adventskalenders überrascht mit zwei bemerkenswerten Shorts aus Deutschland und Indien. FACTORY DROP von Petja Pulkrabek zeigt die romantische Annäherung von zwei Fabrikarbeiter:innen, während der der Animationsfilm CROAK SHOW von Suresh Eriyat ein tierisches Konzert präsentiert, bei dem ein übereifriger Fan ein mittleres Fiasko lostritt. Präsentiert wird das erfrischende Filmfensterchen in Zusammenarbeit mit dem internationalen Kurzfilmfestival @shnit.world .

🎉 Sometimes the best moments at a festival aren’t on screen — they’re in the laughs, the chaos, and the crazy memories we make together.
Go wild, get loud, dance in the aisles, scream at the screen — shnit is about joy as much as cinema. 🥳
Let’s get crazy 🙌✨

🎬✨ From baby groups to lucid dreams, tanning salons to slaughterhouses, and even the fires of witch trials — these shorts pull us into lives caught between pressure, longing, rage, and resilience.
A mother’s fury sparks an unexpected chain reaction. A girl on a train slips into someone else’s world. A lonely attendant finds warmth in a stranger’s voice through the walls of a tanning booth. An ex-con fights to contain the violence inside. And in 1595, a woman accused of witchcraft refuses to be silenced, leaving her spirit to inspire a new generation.
Stories of survival, desire, rebellion, and connection — raw, surreal, and unforgettable.

💓 SILENT PINK + ❤️ LOVE shnit
Twisted, tender, and totally unfiltered. These blocks slip between absurdity and raw emotion: marriages patched with robots, cursed exes in magical wars, and passion sparking where love is outlawed.
Here, broken people face broken systems, longing collides with survival, and tenderness comes with sharp edges.
Surreal, volatile, unforgettable — which block will break you open?
