Germany 2023 – Director: Anne von Petersdorff, Georg Tschurtschenthaler – Original language: English, German, Russian, Spanish – Subtitles: English – Length: 180 min.
From custodian of democracy to royal scandal. For a long time Juan Carlos I was considered the epitome of the modern monarch but later a series of political and private affairs emerged. The first episodes of this miniseries take a look behind the facade of the Spanish royal family and present an ambivalent picture of the monarchy. An exciting documentary thriller about the pitfalls and trappings of power. Anne Thomé
We will be showing two 45-minute episodes of the series at the screening on Sunday 14 May, so the event will last 90 minutes in total.
