Film art under the open sky

Milagros Mumenthaler tells the story of a character who falls back into her past after an inner break in The Currents. The official Filmwerkstatt description emphasizes an intensive, elliptical narrative style and suggests intense moments of horror, psychological upheaval, and motherhood. This makes the evening particularly appealing for arthouse fans, cinema lovers, and anyone looking for a special film program.
