An evening at StuKi that echoes between laughter and lightness

On September 9, 2026, the provincial cultural studio cinema in Zella-Mehlis will screen Full, Half Brother, a warm-hearted, poignant film evening as part of Cinema at StuKi. The tragicomedy by Hanno Olderdissen tells the story of a cunning real estate fraudster, a half-brother with lifelong residential rights, and that delicate transformation that occurs when the perspective on family changes. The screening begins at 7:00 PM, with entry starting at 6:00 PM. ([oberzentrum-suedthueringen.de](https://oberzentrum-suedthueringen.de/Veranstaltungen/))

Between Coup, Conscience, and Sibling Tension

The story relies on the charm of contrasts: Thomas, freshly out of prison, meets his half-brother Sunny, who does not retreat and cannot be simplified. It is precisely in this that the dramatic tension of the evening lies. The production, described in reviews as charming, touching, and simultaneously predictable, thrives on the interplay between two characters who rub against each other until closeness emerges. Christoph Maria Herbst plays the cynical counterpoint, while Nicolas Randel represents quiet resistance. ([filmstarts.de](https://www.filmstarts.de/kritiken/315330/kritik.html?utm_source=openai))
