by Valentin Merz
After twenty years of separation, brothers Adi and
Valentin spend a week together. Adi is 32 years old,
doesn’t work and lives with his parents. Valentin, barely
older, is a filmmaker and seems to have found his
autonomy. The film delves into a relationship where
violence and tenderness seem one and the same.
