THE CHRONOLOGY OF WATER
Director—Kristen Stewart
Feature, USA 2025—128min—18+
English original version with german subtitles
A body in the water, a voice on the move:
Lidia Yuknavitch recalls a youth marked by violence, loss, and the search for freedom.
In her directorial debut, Kristen Stewart transforms the autobiographical memoir into a fragmented, intoxicating immersion—carried by Imogen Poots‘ intense presence. Flashbacks, fragments of memory, breaths between longing and self-destruction form a cinema that refuses to tell a straightforward story.
„The Chronology of Water“ is not a linear story, but a stream of pain and tenderness – a film that shows how survival becomes language.
