A disfigured concentration-camp survivor (Nina Hoss), unrecognizable after facial reconstruction surgery, searches ravaged postwar Berlin for the husband (Ronald Zehrfeld) who might have betrayed her to the Nazis.

One of the finest movies from 2012 was brought to us by Christian Petzold in the form of Barbara, which was co-written by the great documentarist Harun Farocki (Stilleben).

Imo he is one of the best directors from Germany today and his new film Phoenix (which is also co-written by Harun Farocki) could be one of the movies of the year for me.

It wont get regularly distributed here in Denmark until March 2015, but perhaps some of you are more lucky!
