Return to Montauk

2017 | Color | 107:00

Two people, lost to each other for a long time, meet again. He is a writer and she is a lawyer. They had had a fling many years prior, but they were too young to realize that they had met the love of their lives. Now they have returned to Montauk, and it feels like only yesterday that they were together. Neither knows if it will be possible to turn back time. In Montauk, they will find out.

Visitation

A panorama of the last century of German history unfolds in a house on the shores of a lake in Brandenburg: a stage for the stories of its changing owners and their intertwined destinies. Over the course of momentous historical events—the Weimar Republic, the Third Reich, the war and its end, East Germany and the period of reunification—they all search for a home and a place to belong.

Diplomacy

In the summer of 1944, Hitler gives the order to reduce Paris to rubble if it falls into French hands. General Dietrich von Choltitz is to carry out the orders and already has mines planted on the Eiffel Tower, in the Louvre and Notre Dame, and on the bridges over the Seine. However, Swedish Consul General Raoul Nordling steals into German headquarters to persuade Choltitz to abandon his plan.

Baal

Poet and anarchist, Baal lives in an attic and reads his poems to cab drivers. At first feted and later rejected by bourgeois society, Baal prowls around the woods and highways looking for alcohol, cigarettes, and men and women. He gets a young actress pregnant and soon considers her a burden. He stabs a friend and dies alone.
