Frieda: Coming Home (2020)

Frieda: Coming Home: Directed by Michael W. Driesch. With Maike Jüttendonk, Timo Willman, Errol Trotman-Harewood, Madeleine Niesche. A young American couple, Mark and Olivia, are expecting their first child. Before that, they want to make their dream of a trip to Europe come true. They book private accommodations through an Internet portal and embark on their 4-weeks-journey. On their arrival in Germany Elisabeth picks them up at the airport. She is the daughter of the landlady of Mark and Olivias first accommodation, a tiny house, located at a beautiful lake, in the hometown of Olivia’s great-grandparents. They learn that the 82-years old landlady is in the hospital and dying. Elisabeth drives Mark and Olivia to the house. And then the two young people spend their first night in Germany. A night in which Mark gets to know the owner in a special way. The next morning, it is strangely quiet over the house by the lake. And no one will know so quickly what happened a few hours ago.

“u0026quot;Frieda – Coming Homeu0026quot; is an unsettling experience taking place in a beautiful but scary vacation lake house in the forests of Germany.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI saw it at the Snowdance Independent Film Festival in 2020 and I was amazed by the beautiful camera work and the slow pacing. The camera is floating through the empty rooms of the house following the two great actors while tension is growing faster and faster!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI liked it very much!”
