Nightsong

The film features speakers taking turns behind the pulpit of a Gothic church, where a thousand names of those who committed suicide are memorialized. This documentary sheds light on a long-silenced tragedy in Germany, presenting a requiem that integrates the works of Mozart and Brahms.

Nightsong is directed by Hans-Jürgen Sieberberg and aims to create a reflective space for both remembrance and cultural connection. By voicing the names of the deceased, the film confronts a painful past while encouraging dialogue about mental health and historical memory.
