German comedy film screening in Cyprus as part of German Language Weeks

As part of the German Language Weeks Festival, the embassies of Austria, Germany, and Switzerland, along with the Goethe-Institut Cyprus and the Ministry of Education, are hosting a screening of the film 'Oh this unspeakable void'. The event will take place on Wednesday, November 11, at 8:30 p.m. at the Pantheon Theatre, with entrance free to the public and English subtitles provided.

Directed by Simon Verhoeven, the comedy follows 20-year-old Joachim, who moves into the mansion of his eccentric grandparents, Inge and Hermann, after being accepted into a prestigious Munich drama school. The plot explores his struggle to balance rigorous acting studies with the alcohol-fueled domestic rituals of his family. The film was recently recognized at the 2026 German Film Awards, securing three accolades: the Bronze Lola for Best Film, Best Actress for Senta Berger, and Best Supporting Actor for Michael Wittenborn. The screening is organized in collaboration with the Friends of Cinema Society to promote cultural exchange during the festival.
