so, we were visiting a friend and she told us about that, and we figured, ok, sounds like a cool idea! a project like this and a pop up cinema itself is so important because it creates a new life in this big area and in this big space and it creates a new way of use of the former airport. one silver lining of the pandemic is the emergence of unusual and enticing venues around the world, like the templehof pop up, where people can gather and watch films together. well, that brings this special berlin addition of talking movies to a close and with me is emma jones. emma, going into the festival, the authorities here were really determined to see that there would be an in person festival celebration in berlin.
and the people are really very happy and are coming very often now. screening on the night we visited the pop up cinema was the 1982 french team comedy la boum 2. a wide range of film has been on offer. we have shown a lot of current movies, like house of gucci. blondie: oooh, oh! ..or nomadland.. i m not homeless i m just house less. ..but also movies from the 40s, 50s, 605, 705, 805. since opening for the first time, this pop up cinema has been doing strong business, and that s hardly surprising because the airport is iconic and it s certainly the kind of place that i, as a berliner, would love to come to. templehof also has a long connection to the movies. the 1963 german film the endless night, directed by will tremper, was shot

literature describes how liz rosenfeld transforms the planetarium into a speculative future lexicon of flesh, holes, crystals and foxes it s certainly a lot to get your head around, but festival goers did enjoy seeing this experimental film inside a planetarium. so, we have this all encompassing sensual experience. to have in the planetarium was absolutely stunning and beautiful. berliners are quite creative when it comes to new ways of watching movies. berlin film festival goers this year could, if they so wished, savour watching a movie inside one of the city s landmark locations at a pop up cinema at templehof airport. templehof actually went out of the business of being a functioning airport more than a decade ago. jad salfiti reports. round the clock, plane after plane. templehof s greatest claim to fame was the role it played
