The Alumni Circle Media Studies warmly invites all UvA Media Studies alumni to come together for a reunion! Have you lose touch with your former classmates? Then this is the perfect opportunity to reconnect! ✨

On Friday, April 17, from 6:30-10:00pm, we’re hosting a special (and free) night for Media Studies alumni at the department’s creative space BuzzHouse 🐝 in Oudemanhuispoort (E-building). After a walk-in hour, the program kicks off at 7:30pm with two inspiring mini-lectures by (former) Media Studies staff members Dan Hassler-Forest and Catherine Lord. Afterwards, we’ll raise a glass or two and catch up over drinks and bites (🍺🍷 on us!).

In short: this is one alumni reunion you don't want to miss. Be sure to register in advance, as capacity is limited to 80 attendees!

This event is organized by the Alumni Circle Media Studies (UvA), consisting of Paul Blank (chair), Maarten Reesink (secretary), Emiel Martens (treasurer), Maarten Stoltz (leaving the board…), Timna Rauch (new!), Dania Awin (new!) and Saskia Baaij-Verhoeven (new!).

Today from 18:30-21.30 hrs, the UvA Film Club will host their next screening in HVL/BuzzHouse’s Co-Working Space! This week's film is Herzsprung (Helke Misselwitz, 1992), with an introduction by Fatme Hawarin.

After a decade at DEFA’s documentary studios, Helke Misselwitz makes her narrative debut with the fairytale ‘Herzsprung’. She situates her romance within the post-reunification pall that hangs over the titular East German village: goose feathers drift like snow through the kitchens of defunct factories; Eva-Maria Hagen still sings her melancholic folk songs. Russian soldiers withdraw, leaving behind little more than the echo of rhapsodic disco tunes, as businesses shutter and the villagers drift into quiet despair.

Johanna, a young cook, first loses her job, then her husband. She dyes her hair red, steps into red shoes, boards a red train carriage – red for love, and then for blood. One evening, she meets a foreign ‘stranger’, a man entangled in obscure dealings. After he sells his bicycle, she offers him a lift to the station. He returns, stubbornly searching for her throughout Herzsprung, taking work at a highway snackbar in order to stay close.

Their tentative romance unfolds amid mounting hostility, its most violent expression found in the relentless attacks of a leather-clad gang of right-wing bikers. Misselwitz would later describe the bittersweet nature of her fairytale, “that one’s heart can leap with both joy and with sorrow.”
