Peaceful Times

9+
Neele Leana Vollmar, Germany, 2008
98 min, Dutch subtitles

This film is preceded by the short film Gap.

Germany in the 1960s: Peaceful times in the West can start at last, if only Ute’s, Wasa’s and Flori’s mother could manage to shake off the past. She is homesick for East Germany, mistrustful of the cease fire, and most of all, distraught about her husband Dieter’s other women. As their living room begins to look more like a war zone, her children decide to take matters in their own hands. A tragicomedy about a dysfunctional family where the children are in charge.
