Our take
In making a costume drama about a love triangle between poet Friedrich Schiller and two sisters, Dominik Graf attacks a ripe, thorny story with virtuosic gusto. Exuberant, brazenly stylized, and rich in complexity, this director’s cut reveals to the uninitiated one of today’s greatest filmmakers.
