In die Sonne schauen
Lagerhalle e. V., Osnabrück, Germany
The big winner at the German Film Award 2026 - 10 Lolas in total!
IN DIE SONNE SCHAUEN follows four women from different eras - Alma (1910s), Erika (1940s), Angelika (1980s) and Nelly (2020s) - whose lives are bound together in uncanny ways. Each of them experiences childhood or adolescence on a farm in the Altmark region, yet as they move through their own present, traces of the past surface around them: unspoken fears, suppressed traumas, buried secrets.
Director Mascha Schilinski has made a sweeping, epoch-spanning film - a grand tour through the most delicate recesses of these four women's inner lives.
Winner in ten categories at the German Film Award 2026, including Best Director, Best Screenplay and Best Film!
Germany 2025, FSK 16, Osnabrück premiere, 149 min; directed by Mascha Schilinski. Starring Lena Urzendowsky, Laeni Geiseler, Zoë Baier, Hanna Heckt and others.
