Carl & Bertha (2011)
A great historical film about the origins of the automobile: Bertha Benz wrote herself into the history of technology with the first, daring ride in a horseless carriage and gave her husband Carl's invention its breakthrough. Behind this daring act is a story of unshakeable trust, confidence and great love.
