Everytime, Cannes Un Certain Regard winner, explores grief between Berlin and Tenerife
The film follows a family coping with a sister's disappearance, blending daily life and memories under the Tenerife sun.
Everytime, laureate of the Un Certain Regard Prize at Cannes, immerses the viewer in a touching portrayal of grief between Berlin and Tenerife. The film follows Jessie, a lively teenager, her mother Ella (Birgit Minichmayr) and her little sister Melli (Lotte Shirin Keilling), as well as the boyfriend Lux (Tristan López). After the disappearance of one of the three, the family looks for a culprit before Ella travels south. Under the Tenerife sun, past and present intertwine, revealing a delicate, poetic story far from the classic stages of mourning. The characters go on with their daily lives, bearing the weight of the drama without sinking into deep distress. According to AlloCiné, this third feature by Sandra Wollner (Impossible Picture, The Trouble With Being Born) offers a fresh and singular look at loss.
