Movies: Fatherland

A trailer and poster have been released for Fatherland, Paweł Pawlikowski's Cannes best director award winning film starring Sandra Hüller and Hanns Zischler, which earned him a Best Director prize. It will be released this fall by MUBI, the Film Stage reported.

The synopsis: "Fatherland centers on the relationship between the Nobel Prize-winning writer Thomas Mann (Hanns Zischler) and his daughter Erika (Sandra Hüller)--actress, writer and rally driver. Set at the height of the Cold War, father and daughter embark on a challenging and emotional road trip in a black Buick taking them across a Germany in ruins--from U.S.-dominated Frankfurt to Soviet-controlled Weimar. For the first time since the war, Mann returns to his native Germany, having made the difficult decision to flee for the safety of the U.S."
