March 26: Two Lives

Monday, March 26, 7:00 pm, Charlotte main campus, Student Union Theater, studentunion.uncc.edu

Georg Maas and Judith Kaufmann, Germany, Norway, 2012 / 97 min.

German and Norwegian with English subtitles

Made possible with the support of the Popp Martin Student Union Theater Programming Grant awarded to the UNC Charlotte German Club.

Introduction by Kai Werbeck, Assistant Professor of German, UNC Charlotte. Discussion will follow screening.

Europe 1990, the Berlin wall has just crumbled: Katrine, raised in East Germany, now living in Norway since 20 years, is a war child: the result of a love relationship between a Norwegian woman and a German occupation soldier during World War II. Katrine enjoys a happy family life, with her mother, her husband, daughter and grand-daughter. But when a lawyer asks her and her mother to witness in a trial against the Norwegian state on behalf of the war children, she resists. Gradually, a web of concealment and secrets is unveiled, until Katrine is finally stripped of everything, and her loved ones are forced to take a stand: What carries more weight, the life they have lived together, or the lie it is based on? The critically acclaimed Two Lives was Germany’s official submission to the Best Foreign Language Film category of the 86th Academy Awards 2014.

“Two Lives is an absorbing, well-acted, suspenseful mystery,” Stephen Holden, The New York Times

“This portrait of where espionage and domesticity collide is a unique take on typical John le Carré turf,” Jordan Hoffman, The Dissolve
