Toni Erdmann
ComedyDrama
Without warning a father comes to visit his daughter abroad. He believes that she lost her humor and therefore surprises her with a rampage of jokes.
VIBE
A masterclass in cringe comedy and profound familial connection. It's a deeply human, often uncomfortable, yet ultimately heartwarming exploration of a father's desperate, absurd attempts to reignite joy in his estranged daughter's life. The humor is dry, the emotions raw.
