Sisi & I(GFF 2024)

2023 Best Director, Bavarian Film Awards
2023 Best Costume Design, German Film Awards

After a sadistic hiring process, Empress Elisabeth takes Countess Irma as her new lady-in-waiting and they spend an idyllic summer on Corfu. But every summer must end, and when they return to Vienna, their lives change drastically. In her wild reinterpretation of the oft-told ‘Sisi’ myth, director Frauke Finsterwalder transports us to a world with women at its centre—their powerful and complex relationships and, ultimately, the power relations to which they are inevitably subject.
