In a diary-like collage of text sculptures, long-term observation, synth beats and childhood photographs animated with AI, the film tries to uncover the roots of misfortune passed down across generations. Seeking healing rather than blame, it ends with the possibility of transformation, embodied in the father's decaying house, which Pepa turns into a place of safety. The film premiered at the Berlinale 2025, where it won the Berlinale Documentary Film Award and the Caligari Film Prize.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/berlin/events/if-pigeons-turned-to-gold-24772/", "official_url": "https://wolfberlin.org/de/programm/filme/if-pigeons-turned-to-gold", "image": "https://noky.io/images/834ead54cffa09753d9c99326e9bc9c80fd9cae9390f8984759a6145e5243883-1200.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-05T00:00:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "Wolf Kino", "address": "Weserstraße 59, 12045 Berlin", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Watching People Watching Birds", "start": "2026-10-31T16:15:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "fsk - Kino am Oranienplatz", "address": "Segitzdamm 2, 10969 Berlin", "price": "8,-- € (Kinotag)", "price_from": "8.00", "price_to": "8.00", "tickets_url": "https://tickets.planetarium.berlin/Event/Detail?Event=16287", "category": "film", "tags": ["nature/animals/birds", "film/documentary"], "description": "\"Watching People Watching Birds\" is a documentary about people who watch birds.
