A film by Christian Petzold
Undine (Paula Beer) works in Berlin as a historian and guide to the city‘s development. But underneath the appearance of her modern city life lurks an old myth: if the man Undine loves betrays her, she has to kill him and return to the water she once came from. So when her lover Johannes (Jacob Matschenz) leaves her for another woman, she thinks she has no choice – until in the moment of betrayal she meets Christoph (Franz Rogowski), an industrial diver, and unexpectedly falls for him. This is a new, happy and innocent love filled with curiosity and trust. But when Christoph starts to feel that Undine is running away from something, she has to face her curse once and for all.
Winner of the Best Actress Award at Berlin Film Festival, Undine is the latest film from Christian Petzold, the acclaimed director of Barbara and Phoenix.
