content
The Dresden building contractor Walter Steinhoff is on his way to East Prussia to scatter the ashes of his deceased mother. He fulfills her last will to scatter her everywhere where she experienced important moments in her life, namely in the front yard of the house in which she lived; an ornithological station; at the lagoon and in a Königsberg hospital where she worked in 1945.
On his journey, he meets the young, attractive tour guide Nadeschda and an enigmatic woman who is of great importance to him. Because when he scattered his mother's ashes in Königsberg, Steinhoff learned from her that his father was completely different from what he had previously assumed. It turns out that the mysterious woman is his sister and his father is still alive - near Koenigsberg.
criticism
“Subtly staged (television) film, the protagonist of which is confronted with many, even painful, memories of the German past in an area steeped in history. Despite the conflicts, it is all about reconciliation and understanding. "
"Director Peter Kahane [...] staged a sensitive, well-played story about the confrontation with the past."
