FATHERLAND

Poland’s Official Selection for Best International Feature Film at the 99th Academy Awards® WINNER, BEST DIRECTOR, 2026 CANNES FILM FESTIVAL   From the director of IDA and COLD WAR: FATHERLAND follows Nobel Prize-winning author Thomas Mann (Hanns Zischler, KINGS OF THE ROAD) and his actress daughter Erika (Sandra Hüller, ANATOMY OF A FALL) as they drive across a war-ravaged 1949 Germany. Returning home after years of exile in the U.S. and exuding a superhuman gravitas, Mann finds the Germany he knew to be gone, replaced by a country with contradictory ideologies.
