Western (2017)
Written & directed
by Valeska Grisebach this film stars Meinhard Neumann, Reinhardt
Wetrek, Syuleyman Alilov Letifov and Vyara Borisova. German
construction workers head to rural Bulgaria to build a hydroelectric
plant but only one of them really tries to fit in with the locals.
As a study of
relationships between Germany and poorer countries in the EU this is
certainly an interesting film. The minimalist, realism of the film
might not be to everyone's taste but I certainly enjoyed the slow
burn nature of the film. Well made and with some stunning scenery
this is a good watch.
4/5
