Cinéma de Mode: Ember – A Fashion Horror Film

ember

I found this exciting fashion film in the brand new fashion film section of Not Just A Label. It seems to me, that directors Marcin Kempski and Maciek Dąbrowski have set foot on a new genre: Fashion Horror Movies. Their film Ember for the label Konrad Parol is inspired by one of the most gruesome scenes in The Silence Of The Lambs, and it really is as creepy as the Hollywood movie. Get your scare after the jump.

The series starts this Friday at 22h with the charming folk-pop duo Brigitte who will perform for the first time here in Germany at the Bar Tausend.

Short Sunday: Angry Beard

Berliners love beards. We love beards. We wear beards (except for Jens and the girls, of course…) So taking the stop motion film Angry Beard by TKSH! Films into our Short Sunday series is just a logical step! Enjoy the fight of a beard against those who want to get rid of him, after the jump.

Easter Sunday Special Photos

IMG_4847

On Sunday our annual Easter Special took place in collaboration with Merkezi at Kottbusser Tor in Kreuzberg. We had a very exciting Easter Egg hunt in the afternoon. So many of you came by to seek for our eggs. We had so much fun hiding them and obviously you had even more fun seeking them! And it made us very happy to see how excited you were about your Easter presents by fab.de that included a pair of cool head phones, a luxurious wallet, a nice glas bowl, several tote bags and vouchers, as well as some bottles of Absolut and the exhibition catalogue of the ARTandPRESS exhibition currently open at Martin-Gropius-Bau. Thank you guys for coming and thank you to our sponsors for the great gifts! At night we had a fabulous time dancing to music by SNAX and super fun DJ sets by engtanzkavalier, Florian Kolmer and Sophia Brown. Looking forward to celebrate with you again at our next event! Some impressions and animations of our Easter Special at Merkezi after the jump on 2 pages.

Short Sunday: Time To Dance

Actually this is a music video. But considering the length of over 8 minutes and the fact that it’s a proper short film I will run this in my Short Sunday section after all. It’s the video to the song Time To Dance by The Shoes, directed by Daniel Wolfe starring Jake Gyllenhaal (you ever wondered how to pronounce his last name?) as a hipster slaughtering psycho freak. Wonderful! Enjoy after the jump.

The Urban Easter Egg Hunt

Easter Egg Hunt Teaser

Tomorrow we’ll be hosting our EASTER SUNDAY SPECIAL at the Merkezi, at Adalbertstr. 5/6. We’ll open the doors at 12h to start with late breakfast (waffles, quiches, scrambled eggs, coffee, cake…). In the afternoon the big urban Easter Egg Hunt starts that will give you the chance to get great gifts from fab.de and more. A preview of those you can find here.

To help you a little with the Easter Egg Hunt we have some photographic hints for you. There are 6 locations in the proximity of Kottbusser Tor where we are each hiding 3-6 eggs. One of the locations is technically 2 in one, but very close to each other. Some of the photos are only supposed to lead you the way and don’t show the actual hiding place. The eggs will be in little plastic bags to protect them from dirt and rain. They will not be burried in the ground or underneath cars and you don’t have to digg through trash. We picked quite secluded spots to hide them. The eggs won’t be there until tomorrow at 15h.

To give a maximum of people the chance to take part please only take a maximum of 2 eggs per person. When you find an egg, please bring it to Merkezi and you will receive your Easter goodie. The eggs are individualized and numbered, no chance to fool us by bringing your own eggs ;) All remaining gifts will be raffled off in the evening at the party. Good luck on the egg hunt! Find the hints after the jump on 2 pages!
