at Filmrauschpalast: Dystopian Dating Presents: Before Sunset (OmdU) - Open Air Screening + Community Mixer
On this midsummer weekend in June around the time of the summer solstice, we present you two films that deal with the game of power, dominance, submission and gender clichés.
A successful managing director and a new intern are drawn to each other by a force of nature. An intense game of dominance and submission, power and powerlessness begins. A much more mature (and better) answer to "Fifty Shades of Grey" – exciting, sexy, and surprisingly rich in dark humor.
With this erotic psychological thriller, Dutch director Halina Reijn once again delivers an intense film about social taboos, power games, and loss of control, dismantling old behavioral patterns and rules.Nicole Kidman once again demonstrates her exceptional acting chops in the title role. Alongside her are Antonio Banderas as her husband Jacob and Harris Dickinson (known from "Triangle of Sadness") as the outrageously confident intern Samuel.
