WESTCOAST
CINEMA

Programme | 26 July 2024

Because it was so nice: let’s celebrate summer 2024 together on the coast again! The banks of the Main in Griesheim, surrounded by industrial heritage, an old crane and a wild river, will once again be transformed into WESTCOAST, offering open-air cinema, concerts, kids’ workshops, readings, culinary delights and delicious drinks on seven consecutive weekends. This time, the diversely curated supporting programme features three main themes, hands-on activities, DJs and so much more. The West Coast spirit unfolds in the starry sky, in moving pictures, in conversations at the bars, in dance, in sport and through movement by the river. Here’s to summer! On the West Coast!

There’s Still Tomorrow | OPEN AIR CINEMA

Closed

The sensational success from Italy has clearly struck a nerve. And took our hearts by storm!

In its home country, it grossed more at the cinema box office than the biggest blockbusters “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer”.Hard to believe, really.But why is that?In timelessly beautiful black and white images, director Paola Cortellesi creates an almost dreamlike atmosphere that lingers for a long time.
Violence against women and the fight against patriarchy are combined in Rome in 1946 to create an incredibly powerful, solidary and life-affirming story of emancipation that could not have been staged in a more entertaining, sensual, imaginative and, above all, humorous way. A powerful piece of cinema that you literally float out of. Also thanks to Outkast!
