Synopse

How much change can one marriage take? »The most harmonious couple in the Western hemisphere« is how friends describe Agnes (Ulrike Tscharre) and Gregor (Roeland Wiesnekker). When Agnes, in addition to her part-time job, takes up voluntary social work which devours more and more of her time, their harmonious family life is increasingly skewed. Gregor feels neglected, as does their pubescent daughter Helena. Agnes in turn feels misunderstood, because she finds her social commitment meaningful. A precisely observant film about the challenges that come with the adventure of a spiritedly conducted relationship.
