Transit
In Christian Petzold’s brilliant and haunting modern-day adaptation of Anna Seghers’s 1942 novel, Transit Visa, Georg, a German refugee (Franz Rogowski),
flees to Marseille assuming the identity of a recently deceased writer
whose papers he is carrying. There he delves into the delicate and
complex culture of the refugee community, becoming enmeshed in the lives
of a young mother and son and falling for a mysterious woman named
Marie (Paula Beer).
