Minutos


Premiere at 45th Max Ophüls Film Festival - Competition- January 2024

EN


Denise (38) visits her father (76) who lives in Berlin. He wants to rekindle, but Denise cannot see him for who he is, so she projects onto him, who he was: The absentee. Her younger half-brother Sérgio will trigger some questions in this triangular encounter with their common past. Perhaps the memory of a deceased grandmother can close the gap?

Denise (38) besucht ihren Vater (76), der in Berlin lebt. Denise kann ihn nicht als den sehen, der er ist, deshalb projiziert sie auf ihn, wer er in ihrer Vergangenheit war: Der Abwesende. Ihr jüngerer Halbbruder, Sérgio, wird bei dieser Begegnung einige Fragen aufwerfen. Vielleicht wird die Erinnerung an eine verstorbene Großmutter die Kluft schließen?
