    If you are into foreign films please look into german director Caroline Link.

    She won an Oscar for foreign film with Nowhere in Africa , about the life of german-jewish writer Stefanie Zweig, who emigrated with her parents to Kenya under threat of Nazi Germany.

    But my personal all time favorite movie is Beyond Silence about a hearing daughter of deaf parents who goes on and becomes a musician.

    I’m german myself and generally consider german cinema an expensive form of torture with the great exception of Caroline Link.
