Storia
Das melancholische Mädchen follows an unnamed girl as she navigates through the city, seeking a place to sleep each night. Throughout her journey, she encounters various individuals who reflect different aspects of contemporary society. She meets young mothers who view motherhood reverentially, spends time with an abstinent existentialist who believes sex is just another market transaction, and waits in a drag bar for the end of capitalism. Her attempt to write a book stalls at the first sentence of her second chapter. Instead of finding her place amidst art galleries, yoga studios, and strangers' beds, she starts viewing her depression as a political issue.
Riassunto
Das melancholische Mädchen is Susanne Heinrich's debut film, exploring themes of precarity, marketing, serial monogamy, neo-spirituality, disillusionment, and the pressure to be happy in a post-modern society. The movie blends pop culture with theory, feminism with humor, as it follows an unnamed girl through her humorous encounters with diverse characters. Though not a typical biographical film, the story offers insights into a young woman's navigation of societal expectations and personal identity.
