The Last Summer of the Rich

About This Movie

The Last Summer of the Rich captures the decadence and moral decay of Vienna's elite. You’ve got Hanna von Stezewitz, this young and powerful financier, right in the eye of the storm—a corporate leader tangled in a web of excess. The film has this slow burn where the lavish parties reveal darker undercurrents of greed and superficiality. The atmosphere feels thick, almost intoxicating, with a palpable tension simmering beneath the surface. Performances are strong, particularly in how they navigate the highs of wealth and the lows of emptiness. It's distinctive for its raw portrayal of privilege and its consequences, not shying away from showing the darker aspects of a glittering lifestyle. You get a real sense of the characters' isolation amidst all that glamour.
