Not available
Rosie fights for her dignity, Sophie for her mother's approval, Mario for Lorenz's love. And Lorenz? It's all too much for him... Lorenz has made a name for himself as a writer in Berlin. When his mother Rosie is hospitalised after a fall, he goes to his Swiss home village. Together with his marriage-stressed sister Sophie, he consults on how to proceed with their mother. Rosie, a tough, fun-loving woman who doesn't mince her words, has picked herself up again and is determined not to go into a home. With verve and wit, she fights to escape paternalism. In the process, she doesn't leave a good mark on Sophie and, to the astonishment of her children, unpacks stories from her own marriage. In the heat of the moment, Lorenz almost misses how Mario enters his life: a young man from the village who is supposed to take care of Rosie and has fallen in love with him... A gripping family drama with a cheeky mouth and strong actors by the Berlin director Berlin director Marcel Gisler, celebrated by audience and press!
