Film Details

Ramon Zürcher’s wildly acclaimed debut film is a domestic drama like no other. Set in a Berlin flat where a middle-class family comes together for a raucous dinner, the film makes fresh, innovative use of off-screen space, unconventional framing, dialogue fragments, and multiple perspectives—rendering a mundane situation as both a Jacques Tati-style comedy and a tense thriller. “Critics’ Pick… Mr. Zürcher has concocted something intimate yet otherworldly with this highly original debut.” –The NY Times. “One of the most confident and unusual first features in recent memory.” –Ignatiy Vishnevetsky.
