About This Movie

Geierwally is an interesting blend of comedy and drama, set against the backdrop of the majestic Alps. The film's pacing is a bit uneven at times, but it captures this unique atmosphere of isolation and yearning. Wally, the titular character, is quite the strong personality, fiercely independent and caught in her own emotional struggles. The practical effects used for the birds give a certain authenticity to her connection with nature, and the cinematography is beautiful, framing her solitude in the mountains perfectly. The performances add a charming layer to the story, especially the dynamic between Wally and Bärenjosef, which brings a wistful longing to the forefront. It's a distinctive piece that reflects on themes of freedom and love in an unconventional setting.

Cinematography captures the Alpine landscape beautifully.Strong themes of independence and emotional struggle.Interesting use of practical effects with birds.
