In the Fade
Diane Kruger tackles Nazis in a timely thriller from the director of Head-On. After her Turkish husband is killed in an attack in Hamburg, Katja takes it upon herself to do some investigating and find the people responsible for her husband’s murder. Akin has a knack for mixing the complexities of race, geopolitics, and gender in his films, and Kneedler says the director is a “master of tone and character, making even the most sterile of environments pulse with a beating human heart. Kruger’s performance is insanely intense, at once stoic and crumbling. Brutal and transcendent, sad and topical, this film will stay with me for the rest of my life.”
