German film Hen in a Boat to be screened today
|
Today, the Coimbatore Indo-German Cultural Association will screen the German film ‘Hen in a Boat’ (Flussfahrt mit Huhn). The storyline goes thus: “Dear Grandpa, we are off on a secret mission to find a new route
to the sea.” When Robert and Johanna’s genial grandfather is presented with this message, instead of the two grandchildren under his care, he is understandably alarmed.
Without a second thought, he hops into a boat, as the kids did the night before, and goes after them. Robert had actually wanted to let only his pal Harald in on his plans to discover the legendary north-east passage, but his cousin Johanna and Harald’s little brother Alex insisted on coming along for the ride. The intrepid gang also have a chicken on board, to frighten off the water sprite which Robert has read about in books by Mark Twain.
The daredevil antics of the shrewd and sassy kids pursued by a caring, adventurous grandfather will keep young viewers in suspense until the end.
The 111-minute film will have subtitles in English. This children’s film, released in 1984, has been directed by Arend Agthe. It will be screened at the GeeDee Auditorium, President Hall, on Avanashi Road at 6 p.m.
