Evolution (2021)

In a bold new creation, the visionary duo Kornél Mundruczó and Kata Wéber (known for their work on PIECES OF A WOMAN) present EVOLUTION, a gripping tale that spans three generations of a family. From a haunting recollection of World War II to the bustling streets of contemporary Berlin, the family grapples with a past that continues to haunt a society struggling to heal from its own scars. Like the ever-flowing river that links these stories together, memories and identities shift and transform, either lifting us up or dragging us down. The legacy of pain and shame seeps from Eva to Lena and eventually to Jonas, portrayed with breathtaking visuals by Mundruczó and a script that is both heartbreakingly poignant and bitingly witty by Weber. As the echoes of past traumas reverberate in the present, the family in EVOLUTION dares to dream of a brighter tomorrow.
