The closing installment of Roberto Rossellini's War Trilogy follows a twelve-year-old boy struggling to survive in the ruins of Berlin's streets. Young Edmund lives in a bombed-out apartment flat with his siblings and an ill father. While wandering aimlessly in the streets, Edmund gets entangled in black market schemes set up by a group of youths and falls under the influence of a Nazi-sympathizing former teacher and other malicious characters. Boasting a much bleaker atmosphere than its predecessors, Germany Year Zero reveals the devastating effects of fascism on individuals and societies with a sharp and jarring realism.

Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
