The sublime Barbara Sukowa reteams with director Margarethe von Trotta (Vision, Rosa Luxemburg) for her brilIiant new biopic of influential German-Jewish phiIosopher and political theorist Hannah Arendt. Arendt's reporting on the 1961 trial of Adolf Eichmann in The New Yorker-controversiaI both for her portrayaI of the former SS officer and the Jewish councils-introduced her now-famous concept of the "banaIity of eviI." Using archival footage from the Eichmann triaI and weaving a narrative that spans three countries, von Trotta beautifulIy turns the often-invisibIe passion for thought into immersive, dramatic cinema. Official SeIection at Toronto lnternationaI and New York Jewish Film Festivals, Hannah Arendt co-stars Klaus PohI as philosopher Martin Heidegger, Nicholas Woodeson as New Yorker editor WilIiam Shawn, and two-time Oscar Nominee Janet McTeer (AIbert Nobbs, The Woman in BIack) as novelist Mary McCarthy. |
