About Requiem for Something Which Is Very Small
The bourgeois couple Esther and Michael have got themselves caught up in a seemingly ironic game of power, provocation and sexuality. Esther is already on the brink of madness when a young artist arrives. Requiem for something which is very small is a psychological horror-drama, with a cultural-political morale, and musical interludes.
Directed by Isabelle Stever, Requiem for Something Which Is Very Small leans on a strong ensemble — Wookie Mayer, Hanns Zischler, Alexander Rochholz — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1997.
