A father, concerned about his career-obsessed and apparently joyless daughter, deploys his dishevelled prankster alter ego, Toni Erdmann, to make mischief, travelling to her workplace and posing as an executive ‘life coach’. A startlingly original and uproarious comedy, suffused with pathos and tenderness.
Directed by Maren Ade, the film was shortlisted for the Foreign Language Oscar and won 73 awards worldwide.
