“You buy a book. You don’t really know why. It lies around, and then one day you open it, almost absentmindedly. And there you are, facing your own innermost secrets.” So begins Stan Neumann’s cinematic adaptation of W.G. Sebald’s award-winning novel, Austerlitz. The vaulted and majestic space of the railway station in Antwerp is where our journey really starts with actor Denis Lavant (Holy Motors) addressing the camera directly, and musing on the curious nature of railway stations. This bravura opening is startling, charming, and like the unnamed narrator of the book, you surrender to the proceedings and perambulate alongside Lavant, as he journeys through the great buildings of Europe, faded and shuttered hotels and grand colonnades with broken windows. It blends documentary, drama elements. The film reflects a distinct France style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Stan Neumann. With a runtime of 1h 30m, it offers a comfortable feature-length experience.
The main cast includes Denis Lavant, Roxane Duran and Viera Pavlíková. Behind the camera, the film is directed by Stan Neumann, written by Stan Neumann, produced by Richard Copans.
