The suicide of the French teacher and the weird behaviour in the class of the most talented pupils is only the beginning of this mysterious horror film. Six nihilistic pupils who seem ordinary teenagers only at first sight are actually preparing for a catastrophe. At first, their behaviour arouses interest and worry in the substitute French teacher, but this soon develops into a real obsession. What are they planning and why? A film about anxiety, fears and hopes of the young generation.

Lucy works at a high-end matchmaking company trying to pair up moneyed entrepreneurs with elite bachelors and bachelorettes. When she meets Harry at the wedding of two of her successfully paired clients, she immediately knows that this ‘unicorn’ would be a perfect catch for a lot of her customers. But Harry is more interested in Lucy. And then her ex suddenly shows up… As we could expect from the director of Past Lives, Materialists is not exactly a romantic comedy about a matchmaker torn between two suitors, but rather a lucid examination of the contradictions of love and dating.

A minimalist crime thriller set on the nocturnal streets of contemporary Berlin, much like its protagonist: laconic, efficient, and very, very cool.
