Yella
Christian Petzold In Person
March 16 - 21
Based on the horror classic Carnival of Souls, Yella finds chills in the cold cruelty of a male-driven business culture, where a woman (Nina Hoss) discovers that her new job isn’t as promising as it seems.
Inspired by Herk Harvey’s 1962 horror classic Carnival of Souls, Christian Petzold’s final entry in his “ghost trilogy” locates its chills in the cold cruelty of contemporary male-driven business culture. The title character, played with remarkable poise by Nina Hoss, is an eager businesswoman from the former East Germany who discovers that the “good job” she’s just landed in Hanover isn’t as promising as it seems—and that her past life is not so easily left behind. Deftly pivoting between psychological horror and cool realism, Yella is at once an eerie reworking of genre norms and a potent rumination on neoliberal capitalism following the uneven reunification of the two Germanys.
