ANORA | Filmpalette

In the organizer's words:

Anora
USA 2024 - 139' - English OVR - FSK: 16+ - Director: Sean Baker
With Mikey Madison, Paul Weissman, Lindsey Normington and others.

Anora, a young stripper from Brooklyn, meets Ivan, the son of a Russian oligarch, one day. A wild romance breaks out between the two. Because he wants to escape his impending deportation and she sees a chance to get out of her milieu, the two spontaneously marry in Las Vegas. But it doesn't meet with enthusiasm everywhere - 5 Oscars in 2025, including Best Film!
"This energetic tragicomedy unfolds a feverish dynamic in long, precisely narrated sequences that are less about sex work than about dependence on money. The focus on the moment and the mere present creates a great closeness to the characters." filmdienst

The MAKK courtyard has been temporarily closed due to damage to the roof. The screening will be moved indoors to the Filmpalette, Lübecker Str. 15, 50668 Cologne.

Tickets are also available on site at the Box Office.

Statement from the Kino Gesellschaft Köln team on the premature end of the MAKK Open Air

Dear friends of the cinema,

For safety reasons, the inner courtyard of the MAKK must be closed with immediate effect due to roof damage and may no longer be entered. We have known this since yesterday and are now working feverishly to find other solutions so that we can still show the films.

The films will now be shown at 9.30 pm in the Film Palette in the main auditorium.

This is a great loss for us, as we are unlikely to find another suitable open-air location as an alternative venue any time soon. Not only the lack of income, but also the previous costs for the open air are now tearing a big hole in our coffers.

We would therefore be delighted if you could still come and see the films. We are still trying to surprise you with additional offers. The films are still worth seeing and after all, we also have a starry sky in the film palette...
