About this event

Faye and Elly leave high school behind for a summer under a sky full of stars, but it is not clear whether they are living in the moment or in a past that is only just coming to light. Filled with cassettes, camcorders and a 1985 new wave song, this cosmic coming-of-age tale unfolds in a seaside Greek town where past and present bleed into each other, and where two best friends contemplating the night sky might summon something supernatural. Shot on mixed analogue formats with found footage. Directed by Thelyia Petraki. Greece. Screened at the 7th Kobani International Film Festival, in the International Competition. Schauburg Filmpalast, Gelsenkirchen. Main Hall, 05.09.2026 at 15:15.
