Frank and Simone have fulfilled their dream and live with their two children in a townhouse in the suburbs. They are a happy couple until the day Frank is diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour. The family is suddenly confronted with death.
With extraordinary emotional intensity, Andreas Dresen disturbs our repression mechanisms, and confronts us with terminal illnesses and death. He leads us to a place of pain.
