In the early 17th century, somewhere in Germany, a mysterious soldier arrives in an isolated Protestant village. Slight and modest in stature, his face disfigured by a scar, the stranger declares himself the heir to a long-abandoned farmstead and produces a document to support his claim before the suspicious villagers. Over time, he overcomes their doubts and becomes part of the community. However, his quest for acceptance is built on a bald-faced lie.

Winner of the Silver Bear for Best Leading Performance at the Berlinale.

Filmography: Angelo (2018), Michael (2011).
