Lisa, once a brilliant playwright, gives up her ambitions and moves to Switzerland with her husband. But when her twin brother, Sven, an actor with the illustrious Schaubühne theatre, is diagnosed with aggressive leukaemia, she returns to Berlin, in this tender rumination of fate, art, and one’s lot in life.
This film is presented in partnership with the Embassy of Switzerland in Singapore.
