a
german grandchild's funeral
A combined work of film-making and writing.
A German woman in England realizes there is more to being
German than being
German. In the film, a humorous and
moving journey,
we witness her dying to her country’s past.
Story telling, symbolic
imagery and montages of archive
material are put
together in a captivating mix. In the book
autobiographical
text, history and fiction work together in a
cunning attempt
to come to terms with the past.
