Gemütlichkeit is a documentary film about Chicago restaurateurs Harry and Guenter Kempf and their now-closed neighborhood staple, the Chicago Brauhaus. The film, initially funded with a successful Kickstarter campaign, chronicles the Kempf brothers’ decision to close a thriving neighborhood institution after 52 years of business. The film also explores Harry’s journey as a young refugee from war-torn Germany to his status as a pillar of the Chicago community of Lincoln Square, and asks what the future holds for the neighborhood without the restaurant as its centerpiece. The film was produced by production company Tangent Mind, in conjunction with Quriosity Productions and 90° West.
