Oberhausen examines the political film post 9/11 in a big thematic programme

No issue has been as hotly debated here as that of the political film: the East-West conflict, political activism, German film subsidies - Oberhausen is the place where all the relevant films have been shown and the scandals have erupted. Today political films are experiencing something of a revival, due to various states of emergency, the war in Iraq, increasing globalisation and new/old class conflicts. But while current feature-length films are often defined as political by their content and usually adhere in a formal sense to classic narrative and documentary models, artists and short-film makers have long been much freer with both form and content - their works are faster, edgier, more experimental and more controversial.
