Trailer
Why watch this film?
Lola Wegenstein (Valerie Pachner) is a successful executive at a consultancy, but she is crumbling inside. Her sister Conny (Pia Hierzegger) has serious psychological problems and is therefore hospitalized in a special hospital. Meanwhile, behind the scenes of her work, she maintains a hidden relationship with her boss (Mavie Hörbiger) while aspiring to new leaps. This is the central plot of 'Der Boden unter den Füßen', a feature film by director Marie Kreutzer (Die Vaterlosen) which focuses on a woman suffering from burnout and severe emotional exhaustion. After all, everything is crumbling, everything is in pieces. What looks good at one moment is bad at another. It's a complicated life, full of challenging highs and lows. From this, the filmmaker treats this story, so powerful and with emotional undertones, in the coldest and most distant way possible, bringing a provocative look at the work and people dilemmas of the modern world. After all, in 'Der Boden unter den Füßen', there is no escape. Just an apathetic world waiting for us.

Corsage
Starring the always great Vicky Krieps (Embrace Me Tightly), Corsage: The Rebel Empress is inspired by the true story of Empress Elisabeth of Bavaria, who was known, among other things, for her obsession with maintaining a youthful and slim appearance, to the point of wearing excessively tight corsets and developing a very restrictive diet. The film takes an irreverent turn to what is expected of period biographical dramas in its approach to issues such as gender conformity, although it also maintains melancholic elements in its meditation on loneliness.
Drama
Kidnapped
'Kidnapped' - The story of Edgardo Mortara, a young Jewish boy living in Bologna, Italy, who in 1858, after being secretly baptized, was forcibly taken from his family to be raised as a Christian. His parents’ struggle to free their son became part of a larger political battle that pitted the papacy against forces of democracy and Italian unification.
Green Border
'Green Border' - In the treacherous and swampy forests that make up the so called “green border” between Belarus and Poland, refugees from the Middle East and Africa trying to reach the European Union are trapped in a geopolitical crisis cynically engineered by Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko. In an attempt to provoke Europe, refugees are lured to the border by propaganda promising easy passage to the EU. Pawns in this hidden war, the lives of Julia, a newly minted activist who has given up her comfortable life, Jan, a young border guard, and a Syrian family intertwine.
Astral City 2: The Messengers
A group of messenger spirits led by Aniceto, including doctor André Luiz, are tasked with going to Earth to help rescue three proteges whose interconnected stories are about to fail.
