Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
A love story sealed by fate. A chance encounter on a beach in France led a military man and a scientist into an intense and enduring romance. Separated, and contemplating their end, the memory of each other will help them find beauty in darkness.
"Directed by the famous German filmmaker Wim Wenders ('Wings of Desire', 'Paris, Texas', 'The Salt of the Earth'), 'Submergence' is a beautiful and modest contemplation on love, which can be an oasis in the darkest moments of life. Although the movie has the slow pace to which Wenders is accustomed, the performances of James McAvoy and Alicia Vikander keep the intensity."
