Anatomy of a Fall’s Sandra Hüller stars in Pawel Pawlikowski’s exquisite new film, in which exiled author Thomas Mann and his daughter return to a fragmented post-war Germany. 

Dir: Pawel Pawlikowski | Poland, Germany, Italy, France | 2026 | 82 mins | Subtitled

Cast | Sandra Hüller, Hanns Zischler, August Diehl, Devid Striesow, Anna Madeley

 

At the height of the Cold War, celebrated writer and Nobel Laureate Thomas Mann (Hanns Zischler) and his daughter – actress, writer, and rally driver – Erika (Oscar nominee Sandra Hüller, Anatomy of a Fall) embark on a road trip across a divided Germany in ruins, travelling from the Allied-occupied city of Frankfurt to Soviet-controlled Weimar.

Pawel Pawlikowski’s exacting, richly intelligent story of exile and betrayal is another superb study of post-war Europe and the weight of its history on individual lives, in the same vein as Ida (2013) and Cold War (2018). It’s brilliantly performed by Zischler and an extraordinary Hüller and shot in exquisite black and white by cinematographer Lukasz Zal.
