Ungehorsam

The story follows Terese, who grows up in a domineering Viennese family, shaped by her father's public prominence and her mother's enduring sorrow. Seeking to escape her troubled upbringing, Terese joins the commune of action artist Otto Mühl, drawn in by the promise of free love and an alternative lifestyle. However, this seemingly utopian experience soon reveals its darker sides, leading to a disillusioning journey.

Ungehorsam presents a powerful narrative about the challenges of seeking personal authenticity against the backdrop of societal expectations. The film’s themes resonate with those interested in the exploration of cult life and the quest for individual identity. With its focus on interpersonal dynamics and the quest for meaning, it offers a compelling look at the human experience in a radically different setting.
