Styx at Lichtspiel: An Intense Film Evening about Morality, Sea, and Humanity
With Styx, a visually powerful drama, arriving at Lichtspiel Cinema Bamberg on September 24, 2026, the stillness of the sea transforms into a moral emergency. The screening will be personally introduced by Susanne Wolff, promising not only great cinema but also a special evening with a conversational character and immediate theater atmosphere in the program cinema.

A Chamber Play on Open Sea
Director Wolfgang Fischer tells the story of Rike, an experienced doctor, who suddenly encounters a stranded refugee boat while on a sailing trip. What starts as a vacation scene quickly becomes an existential conflict, turning tranquility into shock and distance into responsibility. The dramatic narrative relies on the power of images, precise compression, and the physical performance of Susanne Wolff, which has been described in reviews as extraordinarily intense.

Direction, Suspense, and Societal Relevance
Styx resonates because the film does not offer convenient answers. Multiple reviews highlight the distressing consequences, the semi-documentary style, and the poignant imagery. This is precisely the strength of this evening: the audience experiences a stage-like experience of the screen, focused, close, and stirring, within that theater atmosphere where every movement in the room becomes palpable.
