An Unsettling Waking Nightmare | Tormented by vivid, recurring nightmares she’s convinced are real, Marlene (Sandra Hüller, “Toni Erdmann”) traces her strange visions to a hotel located in a remote village in rural Austria. But what she finds there causes a nervous breakdown and leaves her catatonic. Hoping to get some answers, her daughter Mona follows her mother’s path to the same village, in the process uncovering a long-buried family secret. Michael Venus’s dreamy, atmospheric feature debut is a folk horror tale that’s sure to burrow under your skin and stay there. (In German with English subtitles)
