Betrayal

A man and a woman, two casual acquaintances, learn that their spouses are having an affair with each other. This discovery drives them to do things they didn’t dare to do before. Will revenge prevail or forgiveness? Infidelity has its own logic …

Kirill Serebrennikov's virtuosicly shot dream-like, gloomy thriller conveys the sense of immanent danger in every image. Franziska Petri’s performance in this demanding central role has been described as „outstanding“ (Screen International) and "intoxicating“ (Frankfurter Allg. Zeitung).

Kirill Serebrennikov 
was born in 1969 in Rostov-on-Don, Russia. He is one of the most important Russian stage and film directors. He works in Germany and Russia.
