  1. Film und Gespräch über Offene Ateliers Das Atelier als Organismus – Geyso20

    Sonntag, 27. September 2026, 17 Uhr

    Offene Ateliers sind Kunstwerkstätten für Menschen mit Assistenzbedarf – etwa mit Psychiatrie-Erfahrung, kognitiven Beeinträchtigungen oder Neurodiversität. Ihr künstlerisches Potenzial ist noch zu wenig bekannt. Der Film „Das Atelier als Organismus – Geyso20“ gibt Einblick in das Atelier Geyso20 in Braunschweig und entstand für die Ausstellung „Das Atelier als Gemeinschaft #Geyso20“ (Sprengel Museum Hannover, 2025). Im Anschluss: Gespräch mit den Filmemachern Stefan Stark und Pujan Shakupa, Nina Roskamp (Leiterin Geyso20), dem Künstler Thorsten Ruperti sowie Thomas Röske (Sammlung Prinzhorn). Diese Veranstaltung findet in Kooperation mit dem Karlstorkino im Rahmen der Jubiläumskampagne „Imagine Futures!“ anlässlich des 75. Internationalen Filmfestivals Mannheim-Heidelberg statt. Ort: Karlstorkino, Heidelberg Eintritt frei, Spenden willkommen

    Sammlung Prinzhorn

Frequently asked01 — 07

Which cinemas are covered?

Currently 4 cinemas and film series in Heidelberg and the surrounding area: Gloria & Gloriette Heidelberg, Die Kamera Heidelberg, Karlstorkino Heidelberg and Sammlung Prinzhorn.

How current is the programme?

Data is scraped multiple times a day directly from cinema websites. Cancellations, sold-out flags and programme changes usually surface within an hour.

Can I buy tickets here?

No — the Tickets button on each screening links directly to the cinema's own booking page. This site doesn't sell tickets and takes no commission.

What do OmU, OmeU, DF, OV, DCP, 35mm mean?

Language version: OmU = original audio with German subtitles, OmeU = original with English subtitles, DF = German-dubbed version, OV = original version with no subtitles, stumm = silent film (often with live accompaniment). Projection format: DCP = Digital Cinema Package, the digital standard in modern cinemas; 35mm / 16mm / 70mm = analogue film prints on physical stock.

What happens to screenings that have already started?

On today's view, screenings are hidden 30 minutes after their start time, so only reachable showtimes remain visible. A small note at the bottom shows how many have already begun.

Why this site?

Heidelberg has an unusually dense cinema scene — the DFF Filmmuseum, Astor, three arthouse houses, Pupille at the university, Programmkino Rex in Darmstadt, the Murnau in Wiesbaden — but no shared programme. This site lays every house onto one searchable day view.

How do push notifications work?
