Undine
Directed by Christian Petzold
Produced by Schramm Film, Les Films du Losange
A lyrical, melancholic reimagining of the Undine myth set in contemporary Berlin, where a woman's romantic connection to a diver is shadowed by supernatural obligation and unresolved emotional trauma.
Undine is a historian and tour guide at the Berlin City Museum specializing in urban development, while Christoph is an industrial diver. Linked by a love of the water, the two form an intense bond, which can only do so much to help Undine overcome the considerable baggage of her former affair.
