Christian Petzold is back at TIFF, after his 2012 success with “Barbara” and “Yella” in 2007. In his TIFF14 world premiere of “Phoenix”, he reunites top actors Nina Hoss and Ronald Zehrfeld in another story of a fiercely determined woman — and the deeply divided society to which she belongs — caught between a tragic past and an uncertain future. A disfigured concentration-camp survivor (Hoss) searches ravaged post-war Berlin for the husband (Zehrfeld) who might have betrayed her to the Nazis.
