Allegro Pastell

Set in the summer of 2018, this German drama and romance follows the relationship between Tanja Arnheim, a novelist, and Jerome Daimler, a web designer. The couple maintains a long-distance connection that spans the heat of Berlin and a family bungalow in the Hessian Main Valley. While they initially maintain a carefully balanced mix of trust and detachment, this stability is disrupted on Tanja's birthday when she begins to view the nature of their bond as an existential matter.

The film was directed by Anna Roller, marking her second feature following Dead Girls Dancing in 2023. The production was handled by BR, Degeto Film, and Walker & Worm Film, with Tobias Walker and Philipp Worm serving as producers. The lead roles are played by Sylvaine Faligant and Jannis Niewöhner, supported by a cast that includes Vera Flück, Luna Wedler, Wolfram Koch, and Haley Louise Jones. The movie has a total runtime of 100 minutes.
