With the arrival of the lineup for this year’s Cannes Film Festival it means we will slowly begin receiving information on more of the films that we weren’t so familiar with before and the first has already. Below is the trailer for Barbet Schroeder‘s Amnesia, a new drama starring Marthe Keller, Max Riemelt, Bruno Ganz and Corinna Kirchhoff that will be playing among the Special Selections at this year’s fest.
Here’s the synopsis courtesy of The Playlist:
Ibiza, the early nineties, Jo is a twenty-five-year-old music composer. He has come over from Berlin and wants to be part of the nascent electronic music revolution, ideally by getting a job first as a DJ in the new nightclub on the island, Amnesia. Martha has been living alone in her house facing the sea for forty years. One night Jo knocks on her door. Her solitude intrigues him. They become friends even as the mysteries around her accumulate: that cello in the corner she refuses to play, the German language she refuses to speak… As Jo draws her into his world of techno music, Martha puts everything she had previously lived by into question.
