COMING UP

Lucy Goes Gangsta

“Lucy ist jetzt Gangster” (“Lucy Goes Gangsta”), is a children’s and family film/comedy directed by Till Endemann, written by Andreas Cordes and Till Endemann, and produced by Indie Film.

“Reliable sources claim 10-year-old Lucy – actually a quiet and lovable primary school student – is about to rob a bank in the pedestrian zone of Bietigheim-Bissingen. Her motive is easy to understand: The ice-cream machine from GELATERIA FELICITÀ, Lucy's parents' shop, has broken down. Lucy needs money to buy a new one, in order to save the families ice cream parlor. A few weeks ago, Lucy wouldn't even have jaywalked. She was recently coached by the school's bad boy, Tristan, in how to be ruthless and bad. The operation, code-named "Lucyfer," covered various bad-guy disciplines such as stealing, lying, cheating, and bribing. Witnesses say the training was a total success: even Lucy's best friend Rima no longer recognizes her and is very worried, although there's absolutely no cause for concern.”

VARIA

Über die Doku “Trans Lives on Screen“ bin ich vor einiger Zeit bei Netflix gestolpert – und habe beim Anschauen sehr viel gelernt. Ein wichtiger Film über die Darstellung von Trans-Menschen im Kino und im Fernsehen, den ich allen ans Herz legen möchte, die sich mit unserem Medium beschäftigen.
