ETWAS GANZ BESONDERES: München-Premiere city Kinos I So, 12.07.2026

Munich premiere of Eva Trobisch's film *ETWAS GANZ BESONDERES*. 

Starring Eva Trobisch and actors Max Riemelt, Gina Henkel, and Eva Löbau. 

Lea has applied to be on a talent show. The producer asks, “Who are you, and what makes you special?” Lea doesn’t know and begins searching for a version of herself that fits. Meanwhile, in her hometown, the museum is undergoing a costly renovation funded by the EU, while at the same time her family’s guesthouse is struggling to stay afloat financially.

Lea’s family consists of her parents, Matze and Rieke, who have recently separated because Rieke is pregnant by another man, though they’re still quite inexperienced in their new family dynamics. Her grandparents, who have enough problems of their own—with each other and with their Waldhotel, which, in this remote region, costs more than it brings in. And her aunt Kati, whom Lea sees as a role model, but who, with her cultural and historical ambitions as a museum director in this East German provincial town, isn’t exactly making any friends right now—not even within her own family. Even Lea’s best friend Bonny is preoccupied with other things, as she’s newly in love with Lea’s activist cousin Edgar.

So who is Lea, the contestant—what kind of backstory can be crafted from this? SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL is a family story. And a complex situation.
