(VISITATION)
Volker SCHLÖNDORFF
  • 2026
  • Cannes Premiere

At the heart of VISITATION is a place: a house on a lake near Berlin, where three families live from the 1930s until the fall of the Berlin Wall.
The Jewish family is forced to sell their house.
An architect builds a house in the Bauhaus style and, after the war, tries to realize in East Berlin what was denied him under the Nazis: to finally build on the GDR’s major construction projects.
After his escape to the West, the house becomes a refuge for a writer couple upon their return from Soviet exile.
VISITATION tells the story of twelve people who dream of a home. But world history does not spare their small shore. The house remains nearly untouched by the passions and fates of its inhabitants.
