Tina Satter
Using the transcript of the arrest of whistleblower Reality Winner, Tina Satter’s superb piece of verbatim cinema asks questions about how power is wielded in real life.
Die Wahre Schönheit
When Alina, the 18-year-old daughter of Mona’s best friend, comes to stay, the family’s fragile unity is put under severe stress.
With echoes of Lolita, this is an accomplished and cleverly scripted tragi-comedy in which an undertone of pain and frustration is conveyed by the excellent principal performances, notably that of Eva Habermann, the film’s co-writer/-producer.
