Cracks in the Shell (Die Unsichtbare)

Acting student Josephine can't seem to land a leading role. She keeps on being passed over and begins to think of herself as invisible, but when famous director Gaspar Friedmann chooses her to play the lead role in his new production Josephine is the first to wonder why.

The heroine of his production is a strong sexually aggressive vamp - the very opposite of Josephine. As she is pushed further and further into her new role, the borders between theater and reality begin to blur, sending her on a dangerous path toward self-discovery, and possibly even self-destruction.

Director Christian Schwochow follows up his award-winning 2008 film November Child with this powerful and gripping journey of ambition and abuse.
