A late summer film evening full of resonance in Fürth City Park
On August 20, 2026, an outdoor stage experience opens in Fürth City Park for a film that begins quietly and resonates long after: Fatih Akin's Amrum tells the story of a twelve-year-old boy in the wartime winter of 1945, facing hunger, fear, and a fragile longing for security. The performance as part of the Summer Night Film Festival combines cinematic art with a special theater atmosphere under the open sky.

A story between loss and hope
The story is told from the perspective of a child named Nanning, whose view of the world is surrounded by bombs, propaganda, and familial hardening. This is where the dramatic power of the film lies: the great historical catastrophe does not appear as an abstract chronicle, but as an intimate experience of a child seeking support. Critics describe Amrum as restrained, lyrical, and simultaneously emotionally precise; the close connection to Hark Bohm's memories and Akin's delicate character direction is emphasized multiple times.

Fatih Akin, Hark Bohm, and the power of condensation
Fatih Akin, internationally known for films like The Edge of Heaven and In the Fade, directs a historical narrative based on Hark Bohm's childhood memories. This connection of personal memory and precise direction gives the work a special authority: not a loud war drama, but a carefully observed chronicle of everyday life in a state of emergency. The reception particularly highlights the quiet tension, human warmth, and powerful restraint of imagery. ([palacefilms.com.au](https://www.palacefilms.com.au/amrum))
Open-air atmosphere in Fürth City Park
Fürth City Park provides the perfect setting for this open-air cinema: a place where summer light, evening air, and audience reaction merge. The event takes place on the open-air stage in the park; Fürth Town Hall indicates barrier-free access for its infrastructure, entry approximately one hour before the start, and gastronomic service in the foyer. This creates an atmosphere for an evening in the green that combines cinematic concentration with urban strolling. ([fuerth.de](https://www.fuerth.de/kultur-freizeit/freizeit/fuerth-im-freien/))
What visitors can expect
Amrum promises a calm, intense, and moving cinematic experience: a poetic war drama with great emotional depth, supported by strong acting, careful direction, and an urgent historical dimension. Those who appreciate sophisticated European arthouse cinema under the open sky will experience an evening between contemplation and cinematic magic. A date for everyone who wants to be touched by a clearly told story and a special summer backdrop. ([tourismus-fuerth.de](https://www.tourismus-fuerth.de/event/amrum-450661-mvk/))
