Requiem
- Drama
Michaela, an epileptic, enrolls in college to study education. She goes off her medication and soon begins hearing voices and seeing apparitions that tell her to avoid religious objects, although she is devoutly Roman Catholic. One priest scoffs at the idea that Michaela could be possessed by demons, but a younger pastor arranges an exorcism for the young woman.
Requiem is a 2006 German drama film exploring the intersection of mental illness and religious faith. The film follows Michaela, an epileptic college student who stops taking her medication and experiences disturbing visions and voices, leading her family and church to suspect demonic possession. Based on the true story of Anneliese Michel, the film presents a haunting examination of how medical and spiritual explanations can tragically diverge.
