2 1/2 Minuten

"2 1/2 Minuten" is a German drama that leans into the tension of youth, crime, and the fallout that follows a single reckless act. Julia Brendler anchors the film with a performance that doesn't shy away from vulnerability, and the archive holds one nude scene clip capturing her willingness to bare it all for the role. Fans of German cinema looking for Brendler's more exposed screen work will find this entry a solid, if brief, addition to her catalog.
