FILMGESPRÄCH: Kein Wort

In the organizer's words:

Frankfurt premiere in the presence of director Hanna Slak, followed by a film discussion

When conductor Nina learns that her teenage son Lars has been injured in a school accident, she is faced with a dilemma: can she leave rehearsals with her orchestra behind to be there for him in a situation that could change her life? The decision she makes is a compromise: she leaves Munich for five days to travel with Lars to the island in the west of France where they normally spend their summer vacation - a place full of beautiful memories and meaning for Lars, but in winter the island is no vacation paradise, but windy, dark and cold. In the small house on the beach, mother and son are forced to face each other. Thoughts of music haunt Nina, the calls from the mainland worry her. Is she sabotaging the career she has fought so hard for? Lars withdraws further every day. Misunderstandings pile up, conjectures become suspicions. Did Lars witness a gruesome crime at school? Was he perhaps even involved? When a winter storm cuts the last connection to the mainland, a dangerous confrontation ensues. (Source: distributor)
