Castro Theatre, San Francisco
Northern California Premiere
114 mins. Narrative Feature Film. Austria, Germany (2014). DCP. In German with English subtitles.
Austria's entry to the 2015 Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film consideration. Seven-time winner at the 2014 German Film Awards.
British actor Sam Reily (Disney's Maleficent) speaks German in this Alpine tale: A lone rider arrives in a small high mountain village; nobody knows where he's from and nobody wants him there. Greider introduces himself as a photographer from America, and the town's patriarch, Old Brenner, provides him with shelter for the harsh winter ahead. When the village is cut off by heavy snowfall, a tragic accident leads to the death of one of Brenner's beloved sons. When another son is mysteriously killed, it is clear this is not a coincidence.
