Sterben

Germany 2024 Fiction cor 180`

The Lunies has not been a family for a long time. Lissy, in her mid-70s, is quietly happy when Gerd, her husband who is slowly wasting away from dementia, is put in a care home. But her new-found freedom is short-lived when her own health indicates that she does not have much time left herself. Her son Tom, a conductor, is working on a composition called “Dying”, and ex-girlfriend Liv wants him to be the surrogate father to her child. And Tom’s sister Ellen starts an affair with a married man, with whom she shares a love for alcohol. As Death finally turns up on the doorstep, the estranged family members finally meet again.

Winner of the best screenplay award at the Berlin International Film Festival.
