Germany 2024 – 82 min – Director: Matthäus Wörle

With visually powerful images, the film tells a complex story that we can understand and comprehend without detailed commentary. What was once progress and promised prosperity has become a nightmare decades later. The path that seemed hopeful many years ago was a fallacy. What decisions can you make if you want to go your own way, but politics and the good of the country dictate the framework conditions? And yet the past, present and future are inextricably linked. It takes strength, courage and confidence to keep creating opportunities and reshaping the future. The film tells the touching story of the protagonist and her surroundings empathetically, calmly and with the courage to leave things out. It shows that there can always be new paths and options.

Life is like a river that can change its course if there are obstacles. This sensitive yet expressive debut film allows us to immerse ourselves in this world step by step and experience how something new can be created with few resources.
