​🎬 Weavii Film Night x The Yaaba Film Company - Film Screening Series

​Presents A Night of Film Screening, Discussions, Dialogue, Networking and Fun at betahaus (Moritzplatz)

​Weavii invites you to a special film evening in collaboration with The Yaaba Film Company (TYFC) and betahaus: a night that goes beyond watching a film and turns cinema into a shared, reflective experience.

​​This event is not just a screening. The Yaaba Film Company team will guide the audience through a short analysis of the film and equip the audience with special tools to see the film through the filmmaker's eye. This shall be followed by a moderated discussion, opening space for dialogue, interpretation, and connection. Together, we explore how film can provoke thought, inspire conversation, and challenge perspectives, while bringing people into a more engaged and human cinematic experience.

​​Whether you’re a film lover, creative, or simply curious, this evening is about slowing down, watching together, and thinking together.

About “Antropico”:
In an indigenous land threatened by the presence of white settlers, Maria, an eighty-year-old artisan, confronts the pain of losing her husband. Months after his death, she awakens from a deep lethargy and decides to paint. Determined to overcome her existential near-death, Maria channels her sorrow into creating a work that may be one of her last ones.
This project was made possible with the support of the Brazilian Government, through the Ministry of Culture, with resources from the Paulo Gustavo Law (Lei Paulo Gustavo 2024).

​7:15 PM — Short presentation by The Yaaba Film Company
Geronimo Coiro, Akvile Dubinskaite and Emre ACI will introduce The Yaaba Film Company to the audience.

​7:30 PM — Official screening
“M” by Fritz Lang – Eine Stadt sucht einen Mörder (DE with EN subtitles)

​Geronimo Coiro of The Yaaba Film Company will lead audiences into the unsettling world of Fritz Lang’s M, examining the moral, social, and psychological questions Lang sought to confront through the film. The discussion will explore what Lang expected audiences to wrestle with after leaving the cinema—particularly the private, uneasy conversations about justice, guilt, collective responsibility, and the nature of evil that M provokes.

​Special attention will be given to Lang’s groundbreaking use of sound, narrative structure, and visual design in M, including his innovative approach to off-screen space, silence, and parallel editing, all of which deepen the film’s ethical tension. Geronimo will engage with M as if in a real-time dialogue with Fritz Lang, treating the film as an active conversation—questioning its assumptions, responding to its provocations, and tracing how its ideas continue to resonate with contemporary audiences.

​The film encourages us to compare the past and the present, revealing both social change and enduring themes that continue to resonate today.

​9:30 PM — Discussion & open exchange with the audience
Delicious Italian food will be provided to keep you well nourished for a great night of film! Drinks will also be available to purchase on site.
