- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 31 Jan, 2026 at 07:30 pm – Sat, 31 Jan, 2026 at 10:00 pm
- **Event Description**: A gripping historical thriller tracing the blurred line between truth and fiction. Beginning in Poland, 1920, a war correspondent befriends an officer of the Russian Red Cavalry. In 1989, a Stasi agent spies on a woman in Dresden and falls in love.
