Jerichow

Young Thomas, a middle-aged owner of a kebab restaurant chain called Ali and his German wife Laura (Nina Hoss) drift into an explosive relationship somewhere in distant German hinterlands. The film adaptations of James M. Cain's "The Postman Always Rings Twice" loom heavy in the background, but in the end Christian Petzold's film stands strongly on its own.
