- Synopsis
- Arthur & Diana are brother and sister. The two of them share custody of their father’s old Renault. Still registered in France, the car needs its long expired vehicle inspection certificate to be renewed, so the siblings embark on an absurd trip from Berlin to Paris. For Lupo, Diana’s two-year-old son, this adventure feels like an exciting family holiday.
  
  After an encounter with the police, an antagonistic stop at their mother’s place, an overly sensual party, a flat tire, a funeral, and repeated tumultuous car conversations, they will end up all the way down in Italy, with a few more friends and hopes than they had left with. “Arthur&Diana” is an auto fictional experiment, a transeuropean road movie where documentary and constructed reality mingle to build an alternative world.
