Synopsis
This is the story of Sylvia, who looses her stepchildren on a shopping trip in Poland. For fear of loosing her husband’s love, too, she is unable to tell him what has happened and returns home, pretending anything is fine.
Editorial
Associated with the Berlin School movement, this reworking of Hansel and Gretel places the classic fairytale in a directionless, middleclass milieu. As domestic and public spaces acquire the same sparseness, the film ponders national borders as well as the detachment between parents and children.
