After a heated quarrel with her mother, thirty-five-year-old Margaret, who has a long history of violent behaviour, is issued a strict restraining order: for three months, she is not allowed to come within one hundred metres of the family house. But divorce only reinforces her desire to be closer to her family, so every night she returns to the line that she is not supposed to cross.
The Line La ligne
Much like its explosive protagonist, the film often changes mood while the director Ursula Meier is very skilful at shattering stereotypes about violence committed by women. The Line saw its world première at this year's Berlinale.

On 12 September 1919, a troop of some three hundred soldiers under the leadership of the flamboyant war-loving Italian poet Gabriele D’Annunzio swooped into the Northern-Adriatic port town of Fiume, now Rijeka, wanting to annex the city to Italy. Over the course of the next 16 months, during what is regarded as one of the most bizarre militant sieges of all time his official photography team captured over 10,000 images. A century later, Igor Bezinović orchestrates a direct-action history lesson focused on the siege and its modern-day implications.
