2011/11/07: Sonderpreis der Jury für »Die Frau des Fotografen« beim Curta Cinema in Rio de Janeiro
Beim Rio de Janeiro International Short Film Festival (»Curta Cinema«, 27.10.–6.11.2011) wurde der Dokumentarfilm »Die Frau des Fotografen« der beiden HFBK-Absolventen Karsten Krause und Philip Widmann mit dem Sonderpreis der Jury ausgezeichnet. Der 29-minütige Film lief dort im internationalen Wettbewerb.
Gerti Gerbert was photographed by her husband Eugen over a period spanning more than forty years. Besides the obligatory family photographs, from their wedding day until his death Eugen took countless pictures of Gerti: in her underwear, in homemade summer frocks, or completely naked; on the beach, in the woods, in the car, or on the floor at home. Using the Gerberts' picture archive, interviews with Gerti, and Eugen’s notes, the film looks at what remains of life and love at the end.
