Undine

Originating in the myth of the Undines, half-human half-sea creatures, Christian Petzold takes the opportunity to name thus his protagonist and weaves a love story in contemporary Berlin —and unlike his recent films he hides no spaces with- out a defined time. Paula Beer, apparently the director’s new staple actress, is once again – as in Transit— the film’s protago- nist, together with the enigmatic Franz Rogowski. Together, they

make a powerful couple that gives the film that thespian devotion usual in Petzold’s movies.
