The first look of The Light has been revealed. Starring Lars Eidinger, Nicolette Krebitz, Elke Biesendorfer, Julius Gause and Elyas Eldridge, the movie is directed by Tom Tykwer.

The project marks the return of Tykwer to the big screen after seven years, and four seasons as writer and director of the hit series Babylon Berlin, reports Variety. Set in Berlin, the movie is about a modern family that experiences collapses and new beginnings.

“After quite a long time, which I spent with Babylon Berlin in the roaring 20s, I can finally turn my attention back to our present. In The Light, there is arguing, struggling and fighting, but there is also laughter, singing and dancing. The film aims to challenge the spectrum of emotions and the corresponding narrative possibilities. And the characters are very familiar to me. I want to try to reflect their inner turmoil and make their deep bond tangible for the audience,” commented Tykwer.
