THE UGLY TRUTH

Die Wahre Schönheit

Krishna Ashu Bhati | 2021 | 96 MINS
Germany | Subtitles
Mona, a lawyer with a drink and associated snoring problem, lives in style on the outskirts of Berlin with her dishevelled husband Theo and daughter Hanna.

In Detail

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.
