Upcoming Films at Dresden's Schauburg and Thalia Cinemas
In the vibrant cultural scene of Dresden, the Schauburg and Thalia cinemas are gearing up for an exciting lineup of films this summer and autumn. Here's a sneak peek at some of the highly anticipated releases.
Schauburg Cinema
The upcoming months will see the premiere of several captivating films. "Was uns verbindet" (What Connects Us), starting around early August, tells the heartwarming story of Sandra, a single woman in her fifties, who agrees to care for her neighbors' newborn son. The film explores the unexpected bond that forms between Sandra and the family, providing a poignant portrayal of human connection.
Another noteworthy release is "The Life of Chuck," a reverse-chronological adaptation of a Stephen King short story by Mike Flanagan. The film, expected to be released nationwide (Bundesstart) in August, stars Tom Hiddleston as Charles "Chuck" Krantz and offers an introspective look into the human condition, devoid of traditional monsters but brimming with existential questions.
For younger audiences, the Schauburg cinema will screen "Die Schlümpfe: Der große Kinofilm" (The Smurfs: The Big Movie), "Der Salzpfad" (The Salt Path), and a children's program featuring "Lilo & Stitch" in the afternoons around 16:00.
Thalia Cinema
The Thalia cinema will welcome "Memoiren einer Schnecke" (Memoirs of a Snail) this summer. This stop-motion film by Oscar winner Adam Elliot follows the life of Grace Pudel, an introverted snail collector, as she navigates family loss and difficult foster care. The film was nominated for the Oscar for Best Animated Feature and promises a melancholic, quirky, and humorous style.

A short film titled "YOUTH 1: WHAT COUNTS IN THE END" was screened at both Schauburg and Thalia cinemas on April 11-13, 2025.
