BERLIN FILM WEEK 2026: EVERY LINE BECOMES A CIRCLE

At 93, German artist Inge Besgen looks back on a remarkable life shaped by resilience, creativity, and self-determination. Defying the expectations placed on women in post-war Germany, she embarked on a transformative journey of self-discovery at the age of 50 and pursued her dream of becoming an artist despite repeated rejection. Blending archival footage, contemporary interviews, and Inge's vibrant artwork, Every Line Becomes A Circle traces the path of a woman who refused to let age or convention define her. An inspiring portrait of artistic awakening, freedom, and the courage to reinvent oneself. Preceded by Decisions (Germany, 2025, 2 min) Directed by Lisa Brandt, Kira Rosendahl Cast: Aaliyah Lynch Ida makes decisions every day - big and small. She chooses her lunch, decides on a new career or a new flat. Her life is self-determined and free. But she owes it all to a single, courageous decision: She has freed herself from a violent relationship.
