Sound of Falling (18)

Cinema

3 - 8 April 2026

Dir. Mascha Schilinski, 2026
Runtime: 155 mins

★★★★ Told in four different timeframes in the same rural family home, this story of national guilt and yearning is powerfully unsettling
– The Guardian 

In Mascha Schilinski’s transcendent Sound of Falling, fragments from a hundred years in one farmhouse coalesce into a cinematic flood of memory. Germany’s shortlisted Best International Feature Film entry to the 98th Academy Awards® tracks the lives of four adolescent girls (Alma, Erika, Angelika, Lenka) across the last century – their desires and distress, their secrets and truths, their encounters with another’s gaze and defiant gaze in return.

Though separated by time, far-reaching resonances emerge as echoes of experience linger. Sensual and sensory, this awe-inducing Cannes prizewinner invites audiences to witness an eternal summer, a constant now, and ask: what is looking back at us from the past – or perhaps even from the future?
