As part of Lonely Ghosts: The Early Films of Christian Petzold

“An enigmatic thriller. The kind of movie that tantalizes the mind.” —Stephen Holden, The New York Times

“Narrowly escaping her volatile ex-husband, Yella (Nina Hoss) flees her small hometown in former East Germany for a new life in the West. She finds a promising job with Philipp, a handsome business executive with whom an unlikely romance soon blossoms. But just as Yella seems poised to realize her dreams, she finds herself haunted by buried truths that threaten to destroy her newfound happiness. Christian Petzold’s Yella is a stylish and deliciously suspenseful mystery.” (Cinema Guild)

Cultivate Cinema Circle’s series Lonely Ghosts: The Early Films of Christian Petzold, highlighting the work of the essential German filmmaker continues with one of his signature works. An unofficial remake of the 1962 film Carnival of Souls, this is the third time the filmmaker and actor Nina Hoss worked together in their celebrated series of collaborations.
