L'être humain

Story

Two very different young women open up to each other: a quiet, but intense generational portrait from Michael Klier. The film was created in close consultation with both protagonists, who also introduced their own ideas for dialogue and storyline. After a militant environmental demo, Alice (Lena Urzendowsky) is convicted of civil disobedience and given a community service sentence – looking after Cam (Kotti Yun), who has been traumatized by a racist assault. When Cam decides against extending her stay in the clinic, Alice takes in the mysterious woman in her house in a nice middle-class area of Dresden. But Cam wants to go her own way.
