TONI
ERDMANN + Lecture

Part of the fall Contact Zones Lecture Series, Maren Ade’s 2016 film TONI ERDMANN is a satire of corporate culture, European power dynamics and the complicated bonds between fathers and daughters. Sandra Hüller plays Ines, a German corporate consultant in Bucharest whose carefully managed life is disrupted when her estranged father, played by Peter Simonischek, arrives and adopts an outrageous alter ego. The film won the FIPRESCI Prize at Cannes and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. The 6:00 p.m. session includes a lecture. Tickets are available.
