The Architect (Der Architekt)
Josef Bierbichler, Hilde Van Mieghem, Matthias Schweighöfer, Sandra Huller, Sophie Rois, Lucas Zolgar
The past and future collide for a dysfunctional family in the frozen mountains of rural Germany.
Georg, a successful architect and father of two grown-up children, travels with his family to his estranged mother’s funeral in a remote mountain village. Once there, secrets from his past begin to emerge and the family finds itself thrown into doubt and turmoil. This well-crafted family drama is blessed with strong performances and an intelligent narrative that grips from start to finish.
