Berlin Syndrome

Eager to have a thrilling backpacking adventure, young Australian photographer Clare leaves her real-estate company in search of life experiences and self-discovery in the unknown streets of Berlin. Before long--while admiring the strict former GDR's architecture--Clare accidentally bumps into charming, mild-mannered high-school English teacher Andi, and although he is a perfect stranger, something in his gentle ways sets the stage for an innocent flirtation in the hassle of the big city. However, when morning comes--as a happy Clare wakes up in Andi's vacant house at a somewhat dilapidated tenement building--an unsettling discovery awaits her, as she comes to realize that, instead of being his guest, she is a vulnerable caged bird kept inside a reinforced prison designed to never set her free. How could Clare ever have trusted that snake in the grass?
