Freies Land (2019)

Authentic atmosphere

Very nice movie, seemed authentic enough to me. I really liked how the movie looked (lights, colouring etc.). The atmosphere of the movie reminded me a bit of The Crimson Rivers as well as some Swedish crime movies.

I haven't seen the film which This was a remake of but am definitely interested in seeing that as well. I think the story fit in well to the time after the reunification.

The acting was good enough. In the end quite a basic crime movie but loved the elements that were bought from the DDR time.

I definitely recommend this movie to all fans of European crime movies. Although it is modern, it still has the vibe of the 90s.
