DIE WUNDERÜBUNG

Comedy by Daniel Glattauer

HE and SHE have made up their minds: Joana and Valentin go to couples therapy. Nothing works between them anymore. Except that they agree to go their separate ways. The therapist sees immediately that this is a couple in the advanced stages of a fight. Yet their story once began so beautifully - love at first sight ...

The therapist's attempts to get the two squabblers under control are not at all successful. He diagnoses such acute tension between his clients that he resorts to a very special measure - the miracle exercise. Are Joana and Valentin really such a hopeless couple? Or are there not tender seedlings of perhaps not entirely lost love sprouting up between biting verbal attacks? The long-suffering therapist senses an opportunity. But in these cases of hardship, one step forward means two steps back. And it's not just the couple who have problems - the therapist seems to be in trouble too ...

A wonderful comedy about a married couple whose wonderful times are long gone. A verbal battle of rags with plenty of pace, but also short pauses for breath, because behind the fighting you can sense the search for lost feelings.

In this comedy, Glattauer once again proves his psychological flair - he deals with big emotions and provides great entertainment at the same time.
