A masterpiece of shifting tonal registers, Matthias Glasner’s provocative, semi-autobiographical film boldly treads the thin line between drama, tragedy and black humour – often within the same scene. Winner of the Berlinale Silver Bear and multiple German Film Awards, this darkly comic epic of family dysfunction is in fact a testament to embracing life.
'Death is present but there’s also a hell of a lot of living going in this enjoyably complex, character-driven drama.'
