Undine (2020)

"Undine" is a German fantasy romance that reimagines the old myth of a water spirit bound to love. The story drifts through modern Berlin as its heroine wrestles with betrayal, memory, and fate. Paula Beer takes the title role in a performance that won her top acting honors at the Berlinale. She carries the film's emotional weight and its physical intimacy in equal measure. The archive holds 2 scenes from the movie. This includes a nude scene that catches her bare and exposed in one of the story's quieter, water-soaked stretches. For anyone following Beer's rise, this is a small but pivotal chapter in her filmography.
