Requiem

“She claimed she was possessed. There was no way to know for sure.”

Voices and apparitions pull at Michaela Klingler (Sandra Hüller), a devout Catholic with epilepsy who leaves home for college to study education. She stops taking her medication, and the voices tell her to avoid the religious objects she loves. Hans-Christian Schmid films it without special effects or music, and Michaela keeps trying to live an ordinary student's life while her family and church try to name what is happening to her.
