About This Movie

So, 'Bis zur Umkehrbank' is this fascinating piece, the third part of Rösing's trilogy on Jewish exiles, which really captures the essence of a life lived in shadows. It centers on Hans Keilson, a poet and psychoanalyst who faced profound challenges during his time in the Dutch underground. The film is shot with a certain intimacy that makes you feel his weight of experience. At 85, his reflections are like a mix of nostalgia and somber reality. The pacing is contemplative, allowing you to sit with his thoughts and the gravity of his history. There’s something raw about the way it unfolds, capturing the very human side of exile and memory, which makes it a distinctive watch.
