With Tilman Döbler, Valentin Wessely, Katharina M. Schubert
In this contemporary film, director Dirk Kummer takes his viewers on a journey into divided Germany, processing his own youth which he spent in the GDR. "Sugar Sand" tells the story of two ten-year-olds, Fred and Jonas, who grow up together in the GDR close to the border. Their carefree everyday life in Falkenwerder comes to a sudden end when Jonas' mother Olivia decides to emigrate to the west. The exit application immediately brands the single mother and her son enemies of the state and Fred is therefore required to break off all contact with them. Without further ado, the two friends devise a plan: their idea is to dig a secret tunnel to Australia where they can be reunited. When the time comes for Jonas to leave, he manages to tear himself away from his mother and run away. The two boys are determined to save their friendship.
