“Mr. Mann, which side are you on? Stalin or Mickey Mouse?” Mubi has unveiled the official trailer for the film Fatherland, the latest from acclaimed Polish filmmaker Pawe\u0142 Pawlikowski. This just premiered at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival earlier this month, where it won<\/a> the Best Director prize (in a tie) at the end. Our critic wrote an excellent review of it<\/a> at the festival – one of the best in this year’s line-up. After the end of WWII, Fatherland centers on the relationship between writer Thomas Mann and his daughter Erika \u2014 actress, writer & rally driver \u2014 as they embark on a road trip in a black Buick cruiser across a Germany in ruins, from U.S. dominated Frankfurt to Soviet controlled Weimar. Pawlikowski picks up where he left off with his award-winning Ida and Cold War, exploring \u2013 in his elliptic, distilled way \u2013 the themes of identity, family, love and guilt amid the turmoil and confusion of post-war Europe. Starring Sandra H\u00fcller and Hanns Zischler, with August Diehl, Devid Striesow, Anna Madeley. With cinematography by iconic Polish DP Lukasz Zal. Releasing this fall<\/a> after it plays at other festivals, too. Gorgeous trailer! A must see.<\/p>\n
