Cine en Versión Original - Tschick

CINE / FILMVORFÜHRUNG

Regie: Fatih Akin Erscheinungsjahr: 2016 Hauptdarsteller: Maik Klingenberg und Andrej Tschick Tschichatschow Verfilmung des gleichnamigen Romans von Wolfgang Herrndorf aus dem Jahr 2010. 

 Donnerstag, 23. November Beginn: 19.00 Uhr Salón de Actos de la E.O.I. de Tres Cantos 

Originalfassung Deutsch (mit deutschen Untertiteln) Eigentlich kann sich der 14-jährige Maik Klingenberg (Tristan Göbel) nicht beschweren, denn dank seiner wohlhabenden Eltern verbringt er seine Tage in eine schicken Haus mit Swimmingpool. Nur leider droht ihm für die großen Ferien auch die große Langeweile, denn seine Mutter steckt in einer Entzugsklinik und sein Vater muss auf „Geschäftsreise“ mit seiner Assistentin. Doch dann kreuzt Tschick (Anand Batbileg) auf - und der Sommer scheint gerettet. Denn Tschick, der aus dem tiefsten Russland stammt und in einem der Hochhäuser in Berlin-Marzahn lebt, hat einen Kleinwagen geklaut. Prompt brechen die zwei Freunde ohne Karte, Kompass und Ziel auf und machen gemeinsam die ostdeutsche Provinz unsicher. 

‘GoodbyeBerlin’, hola a la adolescencia La última película de Fatih Akin es una 'road movie' de dos chavales que con un coche robado pasan un verano de locura Madrid. Maik es un muchacho de 14 años que crece en el seno de una familia rica y completamente rota. Durante las vacaciones de verano, su madre ingresa en una clínica de rehabilitación mientras su padre se va con su joven asistenta a un presunto viaje de negocios. Solo en casa, el chaval pierde el tiempo en su piscina hasta que un compañero de clase llamado Tschick, un joven inmigrante ruso, aparece con un coche robado. Ahí empieza una película de carretera (road movie) por un camino sin un objetivo predeterminado.

cricket by Lewis Clark at  the EOI Tres Cantos

Lewis Clark belongs to Madrid Cricket Club (@cricketinmadrid). He told us about the history of the game, its rules, equipment, its cultural diversity and all the countries where it is played – Britain, Spain and also other countries such as Afghanistan, Kenya, Rwanda. Some of his stories were really moving and amazing 

It was impossible to choose the best. 

At the end he shared with us a volunteering project 

where BelgrAID is the most significant NGO 

(https://www.facebook.com/belgraid).

Lewis also invited students to work as volunteers in Serbia next summer.

We had a nice time listening to an English speaker.
