Germany, 2020, 110 minutes., Director: Janna Ji Wonders
One family’s history, centered around a family home and café near Bavaria’s Lake Walchensee. From the cafe’s beginnings 90 years earlier, to her mother and aunt’s journeys in the 1960s – both physically and spiritually – director Janna Ji Wonders draws out intimate stories from five generations of women. Past and present collide, and individual stories touch on themes of the eternal cycle of life, identity, roots, and self-fulfillment.
Our Movie Nights are organized by the Language Department of the Goethe-Institut Washington for course participants but all are welcome and no RSVP is required. Feel free to bring friends, snacks and BYOB.
