2038 IN HONGKONG, BEIJING, SHANGHAI
Today, in the year 2038, we have mastered the great crises. It was close, but we made it. Drama is now history. Our planet doesn’t know or need heroes or villains. On 22 March, contemporary witnesses from the year 2038 will report on how we achieved this. Not just on film, BUT, at the Goethe-Instituts in Shanghai and Beijing, you can experience live the 2037 Pritzker Prize winner Lidia Ratoi, the mayor of Shanghai Rujun Jia, the chief planners of Beijing Liu Chang & Nagaoka Taketo, and the host Christopher Roth. ↗ 2038.xyz(A sequel to the German Pavilion at the 17th Biennale di Venezia, 2021)
SO LONG DADDY, SEE YOU IN HELL 2022
“Teenage rebels confront the sexually abusive leader of a cult-like commune in German director Christopher Roth's timely, engrossing, based-on-reality drama." ↗ Stephen Dalton, The Verdict
“…every cut brings drama, romance, rebellion and pathos to the forefront. It switches from German to French, although the change of tongue does not alter the film’s accessibility. And such is the way it’s filmed, the horror washes over the viewer, bringing them back to the realm of plausibility, exhibiting terror, trial and love. Because, much as it does in real life, love conquers all. Servus Papa, See You In Hell is a triumph of cinematic storytelling.” ↗ Eoghan Lyng, DMovies

FRANK GIERING, LAURA TONKE, VADIM GLOWNA
The slightly longer original version of the film, which won an award at the 2002 Berlinale, has been rescanned by Rapid Eye Movies in Cologne and will be shown in selected cinemas in Germany in summer 2024. Soon also available to stream.
"Provocative, highly watchable and challenging in how it considers radical iconography and the individual's responsibility to history, this is a significant work reflecting, 30 years on, the still debated key political period." ↗ GE, Time Out Film Guide
