Maren Ade's tragicomedy Toni Erdmann a 2016 Cannes sensation and Oscar nominee is an internationally acclaimed classic of recent German cinema. By turns hilarious cringeworthy and heart-wrenching the film revolves around Winfried a retired music teacher and prankster trying to rebuild a relationship with his daughter Ines a high-powered business consultant based in Bucharest. At its center this unpredictable scenario pits one type of performance - Ines's efforts to meet the unyielding expectations of the new economy - against another - Winfried's anarchic role-play meant to disrupt the standardization of life. This book the first in-depth analysis of the film explores the many layers of this generational tug-of-war about the meaning of life work and death. Employing Ade's trademark minimalist style the film deftly comments on the precarity of life the gendering of labor in the new economy the re-definition of feminism by the children of the generation of 1968 and reconfigured East-West relations in post-Wall Europe. Lastly in light of Ade's artisanal mode of filmmaking in which she regularly assumes the role of writer director and producer Toni Erdmann becomes a highly self-reflexive comment on the neoliberal dictates of global art cinema.
