Nicolai Thome

A long-separated German mother and her half-Turkish daughter are reconciled in a splendidly serene dramatic comedy.

After the German reunification: A widowed, unemployed archaeologist with two children and a single futurologist with a little daughter in Berlin fall in love at first sight and persistently and unwaveringly develop a life together. An equally unspectacular and rigorous examination of love as a crucial basis for private and political action.
