Event info

In a small German town after World War I, Anna mourns daily at the grave of her fiancé Frantz, killed in battle in France. One day a young Frenchman, Adrien, also lays flowers at the grave. His presence so soon after the German defeat ignites passions. The prolific French film-maker tones down his often colourful palette to offer a loose adaptation of the 1932 Ernst Lubitsch drama Broken Lullaby, anchored beautifully by German actor Paula Beer. 

The film will be screened with English subtitles during The German Film Days held in Bíó Paradís, February 10th – 19th 2017. After the film days the film will be screened with Icelandic subtitles and released theatrically in Bíó Paradís from March 17th.
