About This Movie

So, Jedes Jahr im Juni is a pretty interesting watch, you know? It’s this nuanced look at love and infidelity set against the backdrop of 1980s East Germany. The pacing is kind of slow, but it builds this heavy atmosphere that really captures the tension in Elke’s life. The performances are quite compelling, especially the dynamic between Elke and Gregor; there's this palpable chemistry. The film doesn’t shy away from showing the struggles of a housewife caught in a restrictive society. You get the sense that every little moment matters.
