What Marielle Knows
Directed by: Frédéric Hambalek
Germany | 2025 | 86 minutes | German, French | Hebrew and English subtitles
Overnight, Marielle develops the ability to see and hear everything her parents, Julia and Tobias, see, think, and do. Her parents struggle to cope with their daughter’s telepathic ability and her insistence on exposing the little lies and pretenses that help them—and all of us—get through life. Before long, they find themselves caught in a manipulative, absurd spiral with unexpected consequences.
A sharp, original, and thought-provoking drama, arriving in Haifa after its premiere in the competition at the Berlin Film Festival. The film peels back the perfect façade of an affluent couple and takes us on an intelligent, comedic journey into the fragile heart of the European bourgeoisie.
