The Police Officer’s Wife
GER 2013, 172 min
A film about the virtue of love, the virtue of curiosity, the virtue of joy.
Synopsis
A young couple lead a modest provincial existence with their small daughter. The husband is a policeman, a common middleclass civil servant. The wife stays at home and cares for their little girl, an alert and curious child, always looking up inquisitively at her mother. This beautiful, seemingly ordinary family live a frugal life of simple joys. It is also a life of increasing violence measured by the dark bruises of the police officer’s wife.
