A wedding night that becomes a test in Duisburg

On May 22, 2026, an elegantly sharpened relationship drama meets a cinema hall designed for strong emotions and precisely set moments of tension at the filmforum Duisburg. The Drama - Starting Over presents two people just before their wedding, whose seemingly perfect happiness is threatened to shatter at the first open confession. Kristoffer Borgli tells this as a sharply observed dramedy featuring Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, and Alana Haim; the running time is 106 minutes, and the rating is FSK 12.

When confession games become suspense on stage

The appeal of this film evening lies in the precise timing of the revelation. What initially appears to be a light-hearted menu before the big day shifts into a psychological chamber play that gains in intensity with each flashback, each cut, and each emotional shift. Borgli only uses the form of RomCom to enjoyably subvert it: from lightness grows anxiety, from charm arises conflict. The Duisburg screening promises a stage experience in cinema format - focused, nervous, electrifying. ([filmforum.de](https://filmforum.de/filme/das-drama-noch-mal-auf-anfang-49693/))

Star-studded cast that savors every nuance

Zendaya and Robert Pattinson bear the emotional weight of the evening with a blend of glamour and vulnerability that immediately pulls the audience in. Their characters Emma and Charlie represent the fragile center of the film: a couple that loves each other yet meets in the wrong light. This tension, as early reviews show, makes the film interesting because it does not aim for a smooth reconciliation but rather explores the fragile terrain between desire, truth, and self-presentation.

Filmforum Duisburg: strong atmosphere at Dellplatz

The filmforum at Dellplatz 16 is centrally located in Duisburg city center; the route is signposted from Friedrich-Wilhelm-Platz. For car travel, the venue offers numerous parking options around Goldstraße and Dellplatz, as well as a parking lot at the former Vincenz Hospital. The box office generally opens 30 minutes before the start of the show, on many days from 5:15 PM, and even earlier for afternoon screenings. However, the historic building is not barrier-free; there are several steps to the foyer and halls, and wheelchair-accessible restrooms are lacking.
