A road movie full of heart, loss, and subtle comedy at the filmforum Duisburg
With On Two Wheels, the audience at filmforum am Dellplatz can expect a cinematic discovery experience that combines personal memories and grand travel images into an emotional cinema evening. The film tells the story of Mathias and Philippe, who set out on two wheels from the French Atlantic coast to the Black Sea - a tour that is simultaneously a farewell, friendship, and lived memory.
A journey that tells more than just kilometers
At the center is not just the route, but the story behind it: Mathias' son Youri had traveled this route himself before he died in 2022. Now, the two friends repeat the journey in his memory. The result is a road movie that consciously plays with the boundary between fiction and documentation, creating an unusual closeness as a result.
Between lightness and depth
The film combines quiet melancholy with fine humor. Instead of pathos, an honest, human narrative dominates, supported by the friendship of the two protagonists. This mixture makes the evening at the program cinema a cultural enrichment for all who appreciate touching European auteur cinema.
The filmforum as a suitable setting
The municipal cinema at Dellplatz has been a place for demanding film culture, film historical perspectives, and special discoveries beyond the mainstream for decades. The atmosphere of the venue, the urban environment, and the careful programming significantly enhance the impact of this film. Thus, a cinematic experience with local history and an international perspective is created.
