Dreamed Path, The (2016)

  • Schanelec, Angela
  • 2016, Angela Schanelec, Germany
  • Leave a comment

Enigmatic and quiet by design, this formally-rigourous work brings Schanelec’s brand of austere cinema to its logical extreme as she once again explores human relationships in existential flux.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Afternoon (2007)

  • Schanelec, Angela

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

I Was at Home, But (2019)

  • Schanelec, Angela
  • 2019, Angela Schanelec, Germany
  • 2 Comments

An unconventional if masterful portrait of a German family in existential crisis, executed in as challenging and philosophical a style as any that works like a contemporary tone poem.

⭐⭐⭐⭐
