In the Eastern Front of World War II in 1943, a five-man crew of a German Tiger tank is sent on a secret mission far behind the fiercely contested front line. Fuelled by the Wehrmacht's methamphetamine, their assignment increasingly becomes a journey into the heart of darkness.

Italian director Alice Rohrwacher follows up her admired first feature Corpo celeste with this coming-of-age drama and love letter to the traditional, rural lifestyle of Italy. Grand Prix winner at Cannes 2014.
