亞洲首映 2023 柏林影展正式競賽 2023 New Face Award最佳女主角 那年夏天，柏林圍牆倒塌，18歲熱愛文學的少女瑪麗亞和男友約翰納，一起住在約翰納父母的農場，每日讀著杜斯妥也夫斯基的作品，漫步於灑滿金黃芒草的夏日農莊，思忖道人生的意義。某天瑪麗亞偶然遇見年紀大她兩輪的亨納，亨納是隔壁農場的主人，生性自私孤僻、過著獨居生活。然而他非比尋常的性格，卻意外對瑪麗亞有著致命般的吸引力，僅此一次的碰面，就足以造成難以避免的悲劇愛戀……。 改編自丹妮拉克萊恩 (Daniela Krien) 的同名小說，本片成功捕捉到貫橫全書的細微「慾望」；夏日慵懶的剪輯節奏配上那濃厚的烈暑溽氣與宛如金黃濾鏡下的影像質感，《愛在生命終結時》導演艾蜜莉阿特夫帶領觀眾重回1990年新舊時代交替下的德國小鎮，來回游走於兩人肌膚間的魅惑、激情和原始情慾。 A farm on the German-German border that recently stopped being a border, in the summer of 1990. Family members from the West visit and everyone is feeling their way through these uncertain new times as everyday life goes on in the summer heat. Son Johannes has turned the farmhouse’s attic into a refuge for his girlfriend Maria and himself. Maria is reading Dostoevsky and wanders through meadows, engaged in a search for the meaning of life. Her encounter with Henner, a much older neighbour, becomes her testing ground, drawing her in, like fate.
