POLISH PREMIERE. "Stella. A Life" tells the story of a young woman, who dreams of a glittering career as a swing singer on Broadway and yearns for happiness and recognition. But Stella is Jewish and lives in Nazi-run Berlin. After she is forced to go into hiding, she joins a group of forgers, to ensure her own survival and that of her parents. When she is arrested by the Gestapo, her life changes from being one of a victim to one of a persecutor. Inspired by true events, "Stella. A Life" tells the breathtaking and shocking story of a young woman in the brutal clutches of a criminal state who can find no other way to survive but to betray others and thus also herself. She is both victim and perpetrator. The title role is played by the exceptional actressPaula Beer, who impresses once again with her multifaceted talent and her courageous interpretation of the character. The exciting script, based on many years of research, has succeeded in creating a moving, highly emotive film.
