Synopsis
Dying (Sterben, 2024) is Matthias Glasner's three-hour German tragicomedy you can watch online on iFILM. It follows the Lunies family, where everyone is unhappy in a different key and nobody picks up the phone anymore.
Tom, a conductor, buries himself in a new symphony and in someone else's marriage. His sister Ellen drinks and tangles with a married man at work. Their ageing parents drift toward hospitals and care homes almost with relief. Then death starts circling, and pushes the whole family back into one room — to forgive each other, or to resent each other even harder.
Glasner pulled the script from his own family, and it took the Silver Bear for Best Screenplay at the 2024 Berlinale. Lars Eidinger and Corinna Harfouch play it without a drop of sentiment — funny, awkward and raw all at once. This is long, adult (18+) filmmaking for anyone who likes German drama that refuses the comforting lie. Stream Dying online on iFILM.
