Miroirs No. 3 Review: Christian Petzold’s Latest Is A Light Meditation On Doubling & Desire

Christian Petzold’s latest film, and his fourth time working with Nina Hoss, is a gentle and insightful story about identity and longing. Laura is a somewhat lost character, easily mistaken for others and prone to being influenced by those around her. The film subtly hints at her struggles, including a possible contemplation of suicide, but never provides direct answers. A music student, Laura possesses a keen sensitivity but carries a noticeable sadness.
