The main character, Gustav von Aschenbach, travels to Venice in search of a better climate following health problems. There, he becomes obsessed with a Polish teenager named Tadzio, who is staying with his family at the same hotel as Aschenbach. Tadzio emerges as a symbol of youth, beauty, and good health; this is in stark contrast to Aschenbach himself, who never speaks to Tadzio but merely admires him from afar. Staying true to the original novella, the film explores themes of health, beauty, artistic inspiration, and the correlation among them.</p> <p><strong>This film will be shown in German with English subtitles.</strong></p> <p>Coffee and cake will be provided!</p> <p>Cost: $8 for non-members; $5 for members; $3 for children 12 and under</p> <p><strong>Location:</strong> <a href="https://gahmusa.org/mailster/9362/00000000000000000000000000000000/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS9tYXBzL3BsYWNlL0dlcm1hbi1BbWVyaWNhbitIZXJpdGFnZStNdXNldW0rb2YrdGhlK1VTQS9AMzguODk5MjE3LC03Ny4wMjE3ODYxLDE3ei9kYXRhPSEzbTEhNGIxITRtNSEzbTQhMXMweDg5YjdiN2M3ZWRiNzEzMjc6MHg0MzU3MTJjODE2MjM3YTI2IThtMiEzZDM4Ljg5OTIxMjghNGQtNzcuMDE5NTk3NA">GAHM, 719 Sixth St. NW Washington, DC 20001</a></p> <p><strong>Kindly request your reservation at <a href="mailto:info@gahmusa.org">info@gahmusa.org</a> or by telephone at 202.467.5000</strong></p> Image Add new address No location 611 Spring Garden St, Philadelphia, PA 19123, Philadelphia 719 6th St NW, Washington, DC 20001 719 6th St NW, Washington, United States German-American Heritage Museum, 719 6th Street, Washington, DC 20001 German American Friendship Garden, 1600 Constitution Avenue, Washington, DC 20006 Village Brauhaus, 710 King Street, Alexandria, VA, USA -- Country --United StatesUSA -- City --WashingtonAlexandria, VA Select Organizer(s) New Organizer Date & Time 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 00 05 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 All day 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 00 05 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 Repeat SchemeNo repeat Daily Weekly Monthly Yearly By day: SU MO TU WE TH FR SA Repeat gap: No gap 1234567891011121314151617181920212223242526272829 Repeat ends on: Never After occurrences On date Date exception: Add exdate Guests & Schedule Add Guest Add Timespan Additional Information Select CalendarFeaturedNo Yes Yes, with backgroundCounterDisabled EnabledCommentsDisabled Enabled Icon TypeIconDateSelect IconNo Icon Animals Airport Bar Birthday Party Business Bus tour Bike Bomb Camping Cruise Coffee Cycling Court Hall Football Gaming Graduation Hotel Karaoke Book Icon Movie Museum Music Photo Picture/Painting Restaurant Race Shopping Show Tavern Talks Ticket Train Wheelchair Binocular Bed Bolt Check Sign Conversation Credit Card Diamond Envelope Female Silhouette Male Silhouette Child Silhouette Fire Extinguisher Hand Peace Sign Hand Point Up Heart Key Gravel Life Ring Lightbulb Money Moon Shopping Bag Video Camera Ambulance PayPal Google Wallet USD Sign Bitcoin Sign British Pound Sign Euro Sign Apple Logo Amazon Logo Android Logo Instagram Logo Facebook Logo Steam Logo Twitch Logo Yelp Logo Twitter Logo YouTube Logo Stethoscope Heartbeat Doctor Hospital Medkit Scissors Pie Chart Transgender Symbol Male Sex Symbol Female Sex Symbol Blind Men Symbol Sign Language Symbol Newspaper Flag Hashtag Snapchat Logo Subway Share Icon Sign Language Icon Odnoklassniki Logo Multi-language Icon Puzzle Piece Television Desktop Calculator Cubes BookSelect Categories Author Information Previous Next
