Synopse
A sensitive homage to a forgotten love. In the main roles: Anke Engelke and Ulrich Tukur. Hans, a headmaster on the brink of retirement, inhabits the life of his wife Rita like a guest. Their son is long gone and their marriage of many years follows practised routines. The new bathroom tiles are just the beginning of something that makes Rita very uneasy. Suddenly, old wounds are torn open. Suddenly, both realize how little they know about their son’s life. Suddenly, it’s no longer clear whether they’re a couple any more or two singles. And then along comes life…
