 |  Student life,  Exhibitions

In the 2025 summer semester, the Lichtblick arthouse cinema will focus on the connection between theatre and film under the motto "Curtain Call - Cinema in 15 Acts". Over the course of the semester, a total of 15 films will be presented each week, showcasing the relationship that has existed since the emergence of cinema and the mutual inspiration between the two art forms. To mark the occasion, "Las chicas están bien" will be screened on Tuesday, 10 June at 8.30 pm in the Pollux cinema.

Tickets for the screening are available both via the Pollux website and at the box office. In addition, the Lichtblick arthouse cinema is once again part of the AStA Kulturticket, which means that 40 free tickets per performance are available for Paderborn University students. These can be redeemed at the cinema box office at the earliest one week before the performance on presentation of a student ID together with an official photo ID.

More information about the programme and the individual screenings can be found on the website of the Lichtblick arthouse cinema.

Las chicas están bien

"The girls are fine": a sentence that frames the film by Spanish director and actress Itsaso Arana. A group of actresses spend a week in a rural house to rehearse a theatre play. Each of them lives through and reflects on their own story, but they are united by their love of theatre. The focus is on the protagonists' dialogues. This film captivates with its calm, playful aesthetic, which draws us into a summery celebration of female friendship and almost feels like real life.

Lichtblick arthouse cinema

The Lichtblick arthouse cinema is a student initiative at Paderborn University and has been enriching Paderborn's cultural landscape since it was founded in 2003 with sophisticatedly curated themed film series. These range from early silent films to contemporary cinema. During these forays through over 120 years of film history, all kinds of classics, marginalised films, curiosities and forgotten treasures have been brought back to the big screen. This, including the analogue projection of 35mm film, is made possible by the long-standing cooperation with the Paderborn Pollux cinema, which is unique in Germany.
