4. Juli: Poor Things (Garching, english)

"Poor Things" tells the story of Bella Baxter, who is left with the mind of a baby after an experimental brain operation. She discovers her identity and struggles against societal constraints as she embarks on an unusual journey of self-discovery through Victorian London and beyond. Bella finds her passion for medicine and undergoes a transformative journey of love, betrayal and personal growth.

The film explores themes of identity, autonomy and personal freedom in a time of scientific advancement and societal expectations. This feminist adaptation of Frankenstein successfully plays and subverts tropes like "born sexy yesterday" in a dizzying romp through Victorian England.
