Vacation with Mom
Directed by Florian FroschmayerThe shorter the better. That's what Andrea thinks when she gives her mother Helga a trip to Verona for her 75th birthday. A champagne reception, a visit to the opera and a nightcap - all precisely timed in 24 hours. Andrea fears that things won't go well between mother and daughter any longer. Unfortunately, the super-compact short vacation is under an unfavorable star: First, Andrea's brother Martin cancels at the last second, then all return flights are canceled due to a cloud of ash and, appropriately, the bus and train drivers across the country go on strike. Now what Andrea really wanted to avoid happens: she has to spend time all alone with her mother. However, not in a relaxed holiday environment, but on an adventurous return journey to Germany. Because something went wrong at work and Andrea is urgently expected in Hamburg to save a major order. On the way, the old mechanisms in the difficult relationship take hold: no matter what Helga does to help her daughter, Andrea dislikes it. While the elderly woman, who quickly "borrows" a car, is getting cooler and cooler, Andrea's nerves are on edge. With the Carabinieri on their heels, we head towards the Brenner Pass.
