Jerichow is an expertly constructed thriller. Two men and one woman happen upon each other on the country roads of desolate northeast Germany. Their fateful encounter turns into a love triangle between people who keep an eye on each other, and their secrets to themselves. Thomas has been dishonorably discharged from the army. Ali, an affable Turkish businessman, has seen some hard times. Laura, an attractive woman with a dark past, seems to find refuge in the shadows of her marriage. This is a classic story with a modern and fascinating interpretation. P, V, MS
