If you loved 35 Rum, try Der Fremdenlegionär
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Claire Denis, and they both carry the bittersweet, slow burn, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to 35 Rum, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Der Fremdenlegionär is
The disciplined solitude of a Foreign Legion outpost meets the simmering intensity of a rivalry without a cause. A hardened officer’s orderly routine unravels when a charismatic newcomer upstages every ritual that once anchored him. The pain is danced, not spoken, and the desert hums along.
