If you loved While at War, try Öffne die Augen
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 Alejandro Amenábar, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to While at War, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Öffne die Augen is
Madrid nightlife, a sports car crashes, shattering glass. A disfigured face, a prison cell, a life unravels. Amenábar's first feature still disturbs.
