Synopse
Pitch-black and unbelievably funny: rarely has a family crisis been so accurately and entertainingly portrayed. All their lives, the sisters Anna (Jil Krammer) and Charlotte (Susanne Wolff) have competed for their mother’s attention. Old wounds are reopened when they return to the family home and discover well-hidden secrets – including the mysterious ashes of a deceased person and the undying love of their mother for a donkey. Anna vacillates increasingly between family loyalty and the desire for personal autonomy and feels forced to take a major decision about her future.
