We encourage visitors to our special exhibition Made in Germany? Art and Identity in a Global Nation to attend a special screening of the film Elbow, at Coolidge Corner Theatre.


Directed by Aslı Özarslan and based on Fatma Aydemir’s novel of the same name, Elbow is an intense portrait of a young woman who is acutely aware of the xenophobia and racism in Berlin society. Hazal is 17 and lives in Berlin. Her greatest wish: a chance. She can’t get a job, and she can’t get a break—she shouldn’t dream too big, everyone says. On her 18th birthday, a bouncer refuses to let her and her friends into a club. It turns out to be the one rejection that pushes her over the edge. Soon, Hazal is fleeing Berlin for Istanbul. She pays a high price to free herself from the projections of those around her.


Both the film director and novelist will join for a panel after the screening.
