Rushes

Directed by Clemens von Wedemeyer

With Arndt Schwering-Sohnrey, Amelie Kiefer, Tarik Goetzke, Daniel Lambach and Tómas Lemarquis

Inherently political, the three films that constitute Muster (Rushes) (2012) visually link to one another, with each roughly half-hour narrative (79 minutes combined for the single-channel version) taking place at a former Benedictine monastery outside of Kassel, Germany. This monastery functioned as a concentration camp during the Nazi era, a reformatory for girls in the 1970s, and later a psychiatric clinic.
