Film | Angela Zumpe's The Pastor’s Children—Punks, Politicians, and Philosophers: German Documentary


The pastor’s house should contribute to improve the state and society. That’s how the reformers had more imagined it. The parishioner’s expectations of a pastor’s daughter in the 1960s were simple: She ought to be less cheeky than her girlfriends, less funny and less selfish. Tensions were inevitable. The filmmaker Angela Zumpe, who grew up in the rectory, composes a mosaic of film fragments, old photos, her father’s Super 8mm films, Christian paintings, all guided by the search of her protagonists for answers on the question: Is there still a myth of the parsonage? The film gives voice to pastors’ children. Featured are the former Minister of State in the Federal Chancellery, Eckart von Klaeden, the GDR punk Mechthild Katzorke, and the young pastor of 11 churches, Valentin Kwaschik, who never wanted to be a pastor like his father. The publicist Hans Hütt fondly remembers the eloquence of his father and how tightlipped he reacted on his coming out as gay. Family Thimme exemplifies the modern parsonage today. In her search, Angela Zumpe encounters funny, sad, and absurd stories, and a recurrent fundamental need for meaning and security. 84 min. In German with English subtitles. less

Author Reading | Danielle Ofri reads from her book What Patients Say, What Doctors Hear


Modern medicine is infatuated with high-tech gadgetry, yet the single most powerful diagnostic tool remains more the doctor-patient conversation, which can uncover the lion’s share of illnesses. But often the difference between what patients say and what doctors hear is vast. Patients, anxious to convey their symptoms, feel an urgency to “make their case” to their doctors. Doctors, under pressure to be efficient, multitask while patients speak and often miss the key elements. Add in stereotypes, unconscious bias, conflicting agendas, and fear of lawsuits and the risk of misdiagnosis and medical errors multiplies dangerously. Dr. Ofri will speak with WNYC host Mary Harris about her new book, What Patients Say, What Doctors Hear, which proves that medicine doesn’t have to work that way, and how better communication can lead to better health for all of us. less
