A turbulent cinema evening with Janek Rieke in Bielefeld
On September 4, 2026, Lichtwerk in Bielefeld invites you to a special cinema with guests: Beule Dismantles the World. The evening combines film culture, audience discussion, and the rare proximity to a director who has both written, directed, and embodied his material. Janek Rieke will be present in person that evening. ([bielefeld.jetzt](https://www.bielefeld.jetzt/node/1254735))
A comedy with a quirky pulse and precise timing
The film reviews describe the work as an over-the-top, technically precise comedy with a clear style: for 79 minutes, the production races through absurd situations, macabre twists, and very direct punchlines. Epd Film describes Janek Rieke as director, screenwriter, producer, and lead actor of a completely over-the-top, often macabre farce; other voices emphasize the relentless pace and unique pull of this indie production.

Between relationship comedy and utter chaos
At the center is a couple whose facade begins to crack: Olli and Anja run a dilapidated boat workshop until a pregnancy reveals old fears, new tensions, and a series of escalations. Lichtwerk describes the film as an absurd comedy about a couple whose perfect facade is increasingly breaking down. NDR categorizes the tone as a North German romantic comedy with catastrophic moments, while Filmstarts praises the density of the gags and the disciplined ensemble.

Audience discussion at Lichtwerk
The special appeal of this evening lies in the direct exchange after the film. The Bielefeld event portal explicitly announces the audience discussion with Janek Rieke. This transforms the screening into a lively stage experience of film culture: first the screen, then the voice of the creator, and then the audience's reaction.
