Metrograph Helena Wittmann In Focus

In conjunction with Metrograph’s run of Human Flowers of Flesh, German director/cinematographer Helena Wittmann’s astonishing, elemental, meditative new feature, we’re taking the opportunity to look back over the impressive body of work—and the truly astonishing images—she’s already created in her young career. With her hypnotic, ravishing 2017 feature Drift, an in-theater hybrid-lecture performance from Wittmann inspired by Éric Rohmer’s The Green Ray, and a selection of Wittmann’s shorts, this small retrospective is an ideal introduction to a massive force in contemporary European cinema.
