The
Ister is a
3000km journey to the heart of Europe, from the mouth
of the Danube river on the Black Sea, to its source
in the German Black Forest. Hailed by Scott Foundas
of Variety as “a philosophical feast—at which it is
possible to gorge oneself yet leave feeling elated,”
the film is based on the work of one of the most
influential and controversial philosophers of the
20th century, Martin Heidegger, who in 1933 swore
allegiance to the National Socialists. By joining a
vast philosophical narrative with an epic voyage
along Europe’s greatest waterway, The Ister
invites you to unravel
the extraordinary past and future of ‘the West.’
This screening will be introduced by students from the Goldsmiths Film Studies MA department.
