action
The family mother and supermarket cashier Gabi, caught in joyless, routine everyday life, begins to hear voices. This turning point not only changes her life, but also that of her down-to-earth husband.
background
The film is based on a biblical vocation story and draws some parallels to biblical topoi, such as the burning thuja hedge ( burning thorn bush ), the triple denial by her son ( denial of Peter ), the hike through the sand of the gravel pit (desert), During the coffee break in the trailer with the twelve gravel pit workers ( Jesus' Last Supper ), the washing next to the water pump ( Jacob's fountain ) - the proximity to the barely flowing brook, which is reminiscent of the Jordan ( Jesus baptism ), is also striking here .
The film had a budget of around 2.3 million euros and was shot within 35 days. The director estimates the time from the idea to implementation to be around two years.
