In the enigmatic world of Christian Petzold's latest film, "Miroirs No. 3", an unnamed survivor of a tragic accident finds themselves entwined in a web of peculiar occurrences.

The story unfolds in a remote farmhouse, home to its mysterious owner, Anna. The survivor, having exchanged hypnotic glances with Anna prior to the accident, finds themselves moving in with the stranger.

The survivor's life takes a strange turn as they begin to see reflections of people who are not present in the room. These apparitions seem to be connected to the mirrors that adorn Anna's house, arranged in a peculiar pattern.

The survivor discovers a collection of mirrors in Anna's home, and it appears that their dreams are now intertwined with the people reflected in these mirrors. These dreams are not ordinary; they are vivid and seem to foretell future events.

In one such dream, the survivor sees themselves committing a crime. Fearing they may be losing their grip on reality, they confide in Anna about their dreams. However, Anna dismisses these occurrences as mere coincidences.

The film's main actor is Philip Froissant, with key actresses including Paula Beer and Barbara Auer. The heroine of the film, played by Paula Beer, experiences a series of strange events, such as losing her handbag twice within the first 15 minutes of the film.

The car involved in the accident that sets the story in motion is shown neatly on its side, but the accident itself occurs off-screen with a casual thud. The film, directed by Petzold, masterfully weaves these elements together, creating a suspenseful and thought-provoking narrative.

Despite the oddities that surround them, the survivor and Anna quickly develop an intimate, even tender relationship. As the film progresses, it becomes clear that the line between reality and dream is increasingly blurred, leaving the audience questioning what is real and what is imagined.

"Miroirs No. 3" is a testament to Petzold's storytelling prowess, offering a captivating exploration of reality, dreams, and the human psyche. The film is a must-watch for fans of psychological thrillers and thought-provoking cinema.
