- Synopsis
- Karo (28) is freshly separated and is struggling with the non-existing relationship with her father. When her mother MICHAELA (50) wants to go on vacation with her to Rügen, Karo suspects there is again some failed love affair behind it. What begins as a spontaneous trip quickly turns out to be a journey into the past of two women who couldn’t be more different: Michaela wants distraction, Karo wants some peace and quite. Arriving in the hotel, they meet the recently divorced JOCHEN (60) and his teenage daughter MARIE (16). Michaela uses him as a holiday flirt, but for Karo he could be the answer to all her questions and longings, while Marie is the mirror of a youth she never had. Mother and daughter quickly realize that the absent father has left a void that is bigger and more painful than they thought. Old sores are reopened and they both try to heal in their own way and free themselves from the roles they were forced into.
