Based on the semester theme titled „Les résultats du féminisme – Feminist Cinema, Feminist Aesthetics,“ the department for Art and Digital Media presents performances, films and artist zines. Feminist filmmakers from the 1960s to the 1980s as well as the development of alternative narrative aesthetics are in the focus of the KDM class this semester. „If the door is too small for you, well then walk through the wall,“ as protagonist Linda Heinrichs laconically put forward in Iris Gusner's film "The Dove on the Roof" (1972), becomes the motto for the artists as well as for the audience: a self-confident questioning of existing structures, a calling to break up pre-fabricated (narrative) frame-works and to develop new points of view.

As a common project, the students create a space for feminist references - an installation made up of Artist Zines: referential texts, adaptations of their works in printed form, scripts for upcoming films and more. In addition to the exhibition in the class, there is a performance program (25/01) as well as a film screening at topkino (26/01) featuring current filmic works by students, as well as the Brazlilian artist Roberto Winter, who is currently artist in residence at the Academy.
