Germany, 2005, 107 min., 35mm Director: Andreas Dresen; Screenplay: Wolfgang Kohlhaase; Cast: Nadja Uhl, Inka Friedrich, Andreas Schmidt

When a divorced single mother and out-of work clothing designer, fortyish Katrin, is almost run down by libidinous, rail-thin trucker Ronald, the event begins a summer of challenge and change, played out at the corner bar presided over by jealous Tina. Summer in Berlin is the latest script from veteran writer Wolfgang Kohlhaase. Winner of the Bavarian Film Award, among others.

Andreas Dresen’s other films include Night Shapes, The Policewoman, Grill Point, and Willenbrock.
