Jerichow
Christian Petzold

'Jerichow' is a classic film-noir-infused love triangle that pits a warm yet brutish Turkish-German proprietor, Ali, with a young and solemn veteran of the Afghan-Soviet war, Thomas. Set in contemporary Germany, their story begins as an unlikely friendship and devolves into a grimly paranoid escapade when Thomas is introduced to Ali's wife, Laura.
