Trailer
Two brothers, Marten and Volker, meet at their parents’ abandoned house, on the coast of the small island they both grew up in. For Marten, the eldest, there is a clear purpose for his return to the island: welcoming his mother who has just been released from jail, where she had been since the death of their abusive dad. Volker, however, seems to have returned to the house with the sole intention of selling it. He has not been able to forgive neither of them for not having protected him from the prolonged abuse. The film is part of the director’s trilogy on domestic violence.
