Rose is a 2026 drama film directed by Markus Schleinzer, co-written by Alexander Brom and Schleinzer. Set in the 17th century, it follows mysterious soldier Rose (Sandra Hüller), a woman disguised as a man, who appears in a secluded Protestant village. She declares herself the heir of a long-abandoned farmstead and produces a document to support her claim to the suspicious villagers.

The film had its world premiere at the main competition of the 76th Berlin International Film Festival on 15 February 2026, where it won the Silver Bear for Best Leading Performance for Hüller. It will be theatrically released in Austria on 17 April by Filmladen Filmverleih, and in Germany on 30 April by Piffl Medien.
