Synopsis
The Dark Side of the Moon (Die dunkle Seite des Mondes, 2016) is a German-Luxembourg psychological thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Urs Blank is a flawless Frankfurt corporate lawyer with money, status and a solid marriage — and nothing inside that feels alive.
When a business partner takes his own life, Urs unravels. Then he meets Lucille, a free spirit from a world he never enters, who hands him psychedelic mushrooms as a cure for his numbness. The trip rewires him. Instead of enlightenment, the polished attorney slides into cold, predatory violence, and soon he is the man everyone is hunting. Moritz Bleibtreu leads, with Jürgen Prochnow and Nora von Waldstätten beside him.
Director Stephan Rick adapts the bestseller by Swiss author Martin Suter. It is a slow, mean little film about how thin the coat of civility really is — strip away the props and something feral steps out. Stream The Dark Side of the Moon (2016) online on iFILM.
