About event
Join us for the Berlin Premiere of After the Act at the gorgeous Sputnik Kino, a Berlin-made feature film by Ivan Malekin & Sarah Jayne Portelli starring Laura Petracco, Jacob Wolf Lefton and Jessica Sy. A Q&A with the directors + cast and crew will follow the film.
After the Act is an arthouse film exploring the complexity of love, betrayal and self acceptance.
Sam and Mia, two writers at different stages of their careers, share the routines of daily life in Sam’s Berlin apartment. But beneath the surface of their affection, tension quietly builds until a casual remark about their friend Becca reveals a devastating betrayal.
Over the course of a single day and night, the three friends face the slow fracture of trust, each drawn to choices shaped by guilt, self-preservation, and the fragile hope that love might still survive the damage.
After the Act is a quiet, emotionally disarming drama deeply rooted in the traditions of arthouse and slow cinema. Inspired by Éric Rohmer’s observational intimacy, Hong Sang-soo’s sharp honesty, and the raw, lived-in immediacy of Berlin mumblecore, After the Act “will break your heart as you watch, and challenge you to pick up the pieces.” (Ken Greaves, IndyRed).
Tickets are available for purchase online, but seating is limited:
