Our take
A non-judgmental portrait of curious behavior, Ingo Haeb’s film charts a misfit’s journey from cold voyeur to proactive participant in heated passion. Befitting protagonist Vicky Krieps’ worldview, this character study is shot in a distant style that morphs into something surprisingly tender.
