Description

The moving story of a brother and a sister caught in the tide of the Cold War Käthe is a Jewish sculptor living in East Berlin.

A survivor of the Nazi era, she is a fervent socialist who has been using her political connections to secure more significant commissions.

Devoted entirely to success, she is a cruel and abrasive mother to her children.

She barely acknowledges Ella’s vulnerable loneliness and Thomas’s quiet aspirations, and her hard-nosed brutality forces her children to build an imaginary world as a shelter from the coldness that surrounds them.

As the Berlin Wall goes up, dreams are shattered, lives fall apart and this dark fairytale of East Germany unfolds.
