Breathing (15) is a uplifting German language film about a young man. The compelling story sees this young man, Roman Kogler, after being released from prison, taking a probation job at a local mortuary. During this time Roman discovers some startling news about the mother who abandoned him as a child. It is this event which leads him to explores his past and helps him reintegrate himself into a society that is completely different to the one he knew before. By the end of the film he is ultimately shown the path back into life.
The first-time director is a veteran Austrian actor who has previously acted in The Counterfeiters and Unknown alongside Liam Neeson.
Breathing was first seen by audiences at Cannes in 2011 and one of the reviews included this review:
*Spare, meditative and hauntingly eloquent ... more promising debuts in Cannes.* The Hollywood Reporter
