"Miroirs no. 3 – a reference to a piano piece by Ravel – is enigmatic and intimate, the growing tension meticulously portrayed. Petzold has a talent for restrained storytelling." (DE STANDAARD)

“Miroirs no. 3 is more than a mysterious, melancholic summer film. Director Christian Petzold dreams of restoring Germany’s summers, destroyed by fascists.” (KNACK FOCUS)
