For some, a dirndl is just a pretty, colourful dress with an apron; for others, it is a symbolically charged provocation. Just like items of clothing, places can also be contaminated. The narratives constructed around them are constantly changed and adapted by private family histories and historical circumstances – and with each generation, a new reading is superimposed on these layers. This Super 8 film dives deep down into the idyll of Austria’s Lake Grundlsee to reveal the chasms that lie beneath.
Reviews
Horrible, fascist and poorly acted
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
