Director Sebastian Schipper has made one of this year’s most astonishing movies—a gutsy thriller filmed in one amazing take with a handheld camera constantly hovering around Victoria as she manoeuvres her way in and out of buildings, cars, and city streets while she and her newfound buddies weather one crisis after another. This wild cinematography combined with a keen sense of light and colour transform a quiet warren of downtown streets into a neon jumble whose hellish discotheques and soaring rooftops seem more like a setting for Goethe’s "Faust" than contemporary Berlin. Definitely one of my top films this year.
