Film Screening: Country Noise

The German Film Office is pleased to present Lisa Miller’s award-winning film Country Noise as part of its monthly German Movie Nights series. Country Noise tells the story of two women searching for identity in a rural setting that is facing increasing challenges from an ever more complex world. A mix of documentary footage and amateur actors speaking in their own vernacular helps recreate an authentic village within a fictional story that both reflects and subverts conventional narrative patterns as well as elements of popular theater and Heimatfilm.
