Berlin Syndrome shows love doesn’t always go to plan since while holidaying in Berlin, Australian photojournalist, Clare (Teresa Palmer – Triple 9) meets Andi (Max Riemelt), a charismatic local man and there is an instant attraction between them. A night of passion ensues, but what initially appears to be the start of a romance suddenly takes an unexpected and sinister turn when Clare wakes the following morning to discover her new man has left for work and locked her in his apartment. An easy mistake to make…? Well, no, since Andi has no intention of letting her go again. Ever.
Directed by Cate Shortland (Lore), based on the novel by Melanie Joosten, the film also stars Lucie Aron, and certainly looks interesting.
Berlin Syndrome is out in the UK on July 9th.
