Der Geist im Glas

About This Movie

Der Geist im Glas is an interesting blend of family dynamics and supernatural intrigue. Set in a quaint village atmosphere, you get a real sense of place, with the ghostly presence of Mercurius adding an eerie charm. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the characters, particularly Dr. Malick Roth and his sister Eda, to develop alongside their students, Sophia and Jakob. Their quest to recapture the ghost is laced with themes of curiosity and bravery, which I find engaging. The practical effects used to depict Mercurius have a classic, almost nostalgic feel, giving it a unique visual character that sets it apart from today's CGI-heavy offerings. Overall, it’s an intriguing watch that captures the essence of folklore and family.
