Synopsis

For Nina, her husband Frieder, and their daughter Charlotte, a new house in a new town could mean the beginning of a phase of domestic bliss. But Nina is having her doubts; she stands about in the half-empty rooms, feeling thoroughly alienated. Suddenly, without saying a word, she decides to leave.

Our take

A compelling character-driven drama, verging on existential thought-experiment, protagonist Nina (Isabelle Menke) makes the fascinating—if opaque & inexplicable—decision to walk away from her life, to cut ties with who she once was. A subdued, slow-burn film from the Berlin School’s Ulrich Köhler.
