With its Pop Up Film Haus events Goethe Pop Up Kansas City seeks to bring together cinephiles, German speakers, and the uninitiated alike to discover German cinema through a curated selection of films.
Goethe Pop Up Kansas City welcomes all at the Stray Cat Film Center for a screening of Hannah Arendt (2015) by German director Margarethe von Trotta. The movie focuses on the scandal that the writer, historian, and philosopher caused with her analysis of the Eichmann trial for war crimes in Jerusalem in 1961.
The screening is followed by a discussion led by Dr. Scott Baker of UMKC.
