Traumnovelle

In 1926 Arthur Schnitzler wrote Traumnovelle (Dream Story), a novella about nightmares and sexual passion in his hometown, Vienna. Movie adaptations have transported the story elsewhere, most famously to New York (Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut). Now, the young German filmmaker Florian Frerichs effectively situates the chilling story in contemporary Berlin where strange and disturbing nocturnal happenings upset a marriage.
