Henrike Meyer

A charismatic young woman's intelligent film about making the leap from supporting roles in German TV dramas to play the leading role in her own life. A courageous piece of performative autofiction which invents its own rules as it unfolds.

Feldarbeit tells of an encounter between a young woman and her father which takes place on his asparagus farm to the west of Berlin. In calm and exploring images between the poles of documentary and fiction, Henrike Meyer is reaching out, looking for some kind of reconciliation.
