A film about transformation, power, and the fragile promise of freedom

With Rose, the Municipal Cinema at Schauburg Filmpalast presents a historical drama that touches the heart on August 17, 2026, at 5:45 PM. Markus Schleinzer and Alexander Brom tell the story of a woman who masquerades as a man in the 17th century to gain social recognition, risking a life full of disguise, yearning, and exposure.

A production with strict form and great inner tension

Schleinzer develops a fictional portrait of a woman from historical accounts, treating freedom, identity, and gender not as buzzwords but as dramatic forces. Critics highlight the narrative's pull, the stylistic intent, and the images that are memorable and lingering. Particularly striking is the combination of tragedy and comedy, which gives the material its ambiguity and depth.

Sandra Hüller at the center of a concentrated cinematic experience

Even though Rose is a film, the work possesses the presence of great stage art: precise gestures, clear stances, a dense theatrical atmosphere focusing on body, roles, and social order. The ensemble featuring Sandra Hüller, Caro Braun, Godehard Giese, Maria Dragus, and Robert Gwisdek carries this tension with an intensity that pulls the audience directly into the conflicts.
