Berlin Syndrome
The rare psychological thriller that feels not just taut and gripping, but genuinely exploratory.
Berlin Syndrome
While vacationing in Berlin, Australian photographer Clare meets Andi, a charismatic local with whom she shares an instant attraction. After a night of passion, what initially appears to be the start of a romance takes an unexpected and sinister turn when Clare wakes the following morning to discover Andi has left for work and locked her in his apartment. An easy mistake to make, of course, except Andi has no intention of letting her go. Ever.
