SPECIAL BERLINALE EDITIONTen years after Run Lola Run Tom Tykwer at the 2009 Berlin International Film FestivalTen years after his international smash hit Run Lola Run, director Tom Tykwer makes a high-profile appearance at the Berlinale. His new film THE INTERNATIONAL, a thriller starring Hollywood stars Naomi Watts and Clive Owen, will be the opening film at the 59th Berlin International Film Festival. Also screening out of competition is the anthology film GERMANY 09, made up of 13 short films by 13 directors. Tom Tykwer initiated the project, which was inspired by the film Germany in Autumn (Schlöndorff, Kluge, Fassbinder, 1978), and contributed one of the segments.Political thriller and a search for identity German films in competitionNever before have there been so many German films screening at the Berlinale. More than 90 German productions can be found across all the various sections. But only two German films are vying for the gold and silver bears.

And the young, still unknown director Maren Ade has made it into the competition with her first feature-length film. EVERYONE ELSE tells of the search for identity by a mismatched couple fighting its way together through a vacation in isolation. KINO reports on two directors and their films in the festivals main competition. And our updated broadcast will report on the winners.
