Description

BENELUX PREMIERE

As the title character, Minna Wündrich is the captivating powerhouse of Eva Trobisch’s sophomore feature, a deeply intelligent and meticulously researched drama. Ivo works as an outpatient palliative carer. She travels to different households every day, where families, married couples, and single people experience different ways of living and dying, and different ways of dealing with the time that remains. Ivo is there for all of them – a fact that begins to cause ruptures in her daily life.

‘Trobisch’s tough, observational drama… delivers a stripped-down, totally unsentimental portrait of someone overwhelmed by the feelings she keeps bottled up within… Trobisch’s approach... marks her as an important new voice. Named one of Variety’s Directors to Watch earlier this year... this undeniable new talent poses a simple but essential question: Who cares for the caregivers?’—Peter Debruge, Variety. Winner, Heiner Carow Prize (best emerging talent), Berlin International Film Festival.
