Dir. Volker Schlondorff, 2026 118mins – Volker Schlöndorff retrospective 

---

Volker Schlöndorff premiered his latest film at this year’s Cannes Film Festival where he previously won the Palme D’Or. We screen this new film on the eve of its cinema release in Germany and internationally.

In the story, a Berlin lakeside house witnesses a century of history: Nazism, war, Soviet occupation, German reunification. Through changing regimes, families pass through Jewish residents, an architect couple, a writer, her granddaughter seeking peace.
