Zwielicht

· Mystery, Drama

It is often easier to suppress stressful experiences instead of dealing with them. And so Klara stands alone in a clearing looking for her child. The young mother sets off on her search and is drawn into the dark forest more than she would like. Disoriented, she threatens to literally sink into it. Restless and guided by the calls of her child, she penetrates deeper and deeper into nature and thus also into the depths of her own consciousness. Accompanied by the gnawing certainty of a terrible truth, she walks on the threshold between reality and dream.
