Dreileben - Beats Being Dead
German writer and director Christian Petzold was one of the three directors to take part in a trilogy that takes place in the same location but each dealing with different characters and loosely tied to the others. In the first part, two teenagers experience love and heartbreak while an escaped murderer is on the loose in the idyllic surroundings. Petzold masterfully blends fairy tale elements with sinister undertones that lurks in the woods with a chilling climax. Jacob Matschenz and Luna Mijovic are perfectly cast the leads with nuanced performances. 1001 Films' coverage of the SFIFF55 (San Francisco International Film Festival).
