The work of filmmaker Angela Schanelec has garnered a committed following since her 1994 debut. Her films have bewitched and mystified audiences with her unique, elliptical depictions of everyday life.
Winner of the 'Best Director' prize at the 2019 Berlin Film Festival, I Was at Home, but... explores the impact of a devastating tragedy on a family, as they come to terms with grief, longing and and the prospect of moving on.
Schanelec’s films have a rhythm and tone all their own, and I Was at Home, but... achieves a remarkable balance of quiet poetry and raw emotion.

'Cinema Scope' covered this one too in an article and interview by Giovanni Marchini Camia. Second Run look like they are gearing up for as interesting a set of releases as usual this year.

Great news, one of my favourites from last year. More Schanelec on blu is welcome. Not sure about Second Run's blurb for this, which makes it sound a lot more grim than it is. Some of it is pretty (dryly) funny.
