Where were you when I needed you? A hiking movie about two friends who have grown apart. The sun is high in the heavens, the landscape spectacular and there's more than enough to talk about: Ella and Nell's hiking tour through the countryside known as "Saxon Switzerland" starts well enough. The two fortyish friends haven't seen each other for ages and are glad of the chance to catch up. The longer the trek lasts, however, the more obvious becomes the gulf separating them. At first, they just quarrel about trivial things – until finally the decisive subject is broached: what was Ella doing while Nell was put into psychiatric care? Website: https://www.dffb.de
