NRMutiny: Some caregivers party in a New Year’s Eve nursing home. Boarding: A Congolese family living in Germany is visited by a pretend social worker. Adrift: A man crushed by his community wanders in the medieval German countryside. Spanning three interlinked but stylistically distinct films, the triptych navigates the metaphoric and literal topographies of shipwreck as both rupture and reckoning, building a suggestive meditation on exile, identity, and the fractured condition of modern belonging.
