One evening, his friend Basil suddenly leaves the group and doesn&#8217;t return. Shortly afterwards, Samir&#8217;s night shift begins, he gets into a taxi and we follow him for 24 hours: he sets off on a road trip through Berlin at night, one eye always on his smartphone to show him the way. The next day, while searching for Basil, Samir meets people who make him increasingly aware of his dwindling existence. When he realises that he can&#8217;t get anywhere on his own, the mysterious Henry appears and offers him a solution that requires sacrifice.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;98025&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<strong>Julius Schulthei\u00df<\/strong> says about the film:<em> &#8220;Due to a loss in my personal environment, I had the basic idea of making a very calm and existentialist film. It was to be a drama, but also contain aspects of a crime story. I was keen to limit the action to 24 hours and to follow a single person without interruption. The character should be largely free of clearly defined character traits &#8211; lost, depressed and passive, as if he were a spectator of himself. You only learn about the characteristics attributed to him through others and even then you don&#8217;t know if they are true.<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;99793&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;99829&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<em>The result, I hope, is a long-lasting uncertainty about the protagonist&#8217;s past, desires and goals.&#8221;<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qMj0PrxkFC4&#8243; title=&#8221;Trailer&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]More information about: <a title=\"Monolith (2023) von Julius Schulthei\u00df | Darling Berlin\" href=\"https:\/\/ucm.one\/en\/monolith\/\">Monolith<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]More information about the label: <a title=\"Darling Berlin\" href=\"https:\/\/ucm.one\/en\/film-labels\/darling-berlin\/\">Darling Berlin<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text] UCM.ONE is bringing the award-winning film &#8220;Monolith&#8221; to German cinemas on the Darling Berlin label from 12 October 2023.
