The film begins with a horrific nightmare of the writer. Her father throws her younger-self out the roof of the building. Malina is a complex and crazy movie filled to the brim with symbolic images. It goes completely bonkers in the last 30 minutes as things turn completely surreal, with part of the writer's apartment constantly on fire. #IsabelleHuppert gives all to her blistering performance as a woman who desperately needs to validate her existence. #wernerschroeter #austria
