After a shocking accident befalls a teenage girl in Berlin, her mother, younger sister and boyfriend drift into a state of suspended grief, until an extended, dreamlike climax on Tenerife. Sandra Wollner's film won the Un Certain Regard Prize at Cannes, and Birgit Minichmayr plays the mother. If you gravitate toward serious European art cinema, this is one of the Main Slate's most decorated titles in Brooklyn.
What to expect
A 124-minute German-language drama with English subtitles, screening in a BAM cinema with a festival audience. The mood is contemplative, with a shift in setting late in the film.
Good to know
- BAM sits by the Atlantic Av–Barclays Ctr hub (2/3/4/5/B/D/N/Q/R); the C to Lafayette Av and G to Fulton St are also close.
- These Brooklyn screenings are part of NYFF's borough program, so the crowd skews local and festival-serious.
- Buy through Film at Lincoln Center's NYFF site; festival screenings can go to standby when sold out.
- Fort Greene has plenty of restaurants and bars within a few blocks for a pre- or post-film bite.
