Our Next Screening
-

Kontinental ’25
This sharp, absurdist dark comedy follows a guilt-stricken Transylvanian court bailiff thrown into an existential crisis after evicting a man who then takes his own life. Her moral tailspin exposes deep societal fractures in a piercing satire that won the Silver Bear for Best Screenplay at the Berlin Film Festival.
