Our take
Against the backdrop of the German art world, this sensitive debut from director Lisa Bierwirth and producer Maren Ade (Toni Erdmann) unfolds with a delicate intimacy. Examining questions of class, cultural division, and liberal complacency, Prince is a poignantly romantic tale of mid-life desire.
