Cinematheque . Film Schedule . TONI ERDMANN
The most acclaimed foreign language film of 2016!
Austria, Germany, Romania, Switzerland | 2016 | Maren Ade
This epic-length German comedy was unquestionably the foreign-language film of 2016. Toni Erdmann was named best movie of the year by four respected international film magazines (Britain’s Sight & Sound, France’s Cahiers du Cinema, America’s Film Comment, and Canada’s Cinema Scope); was voted Best Foreign Language Film by the National Society of Film Critics, the New York Film Critics Circle, and the London Film Critics Circle; and was awarded five European Film Awards (Best Picture, Director, Screenplay, Actor, and Actress). It probably would have won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film if President Trump’s Muslim travel ban hadn’t sparked sympathy votes for Iran’s The Salesman. Consequently, Maren Ade’s tale of a prankster dad’s outrageous efforts to reconnect with his workaholic daughter lasted only two weeks in Cleveland, and many local filmgoers didn’t see it. Tonight they have another chance. Subtitles. DCP. 162 min.
