TV post-war drama about a gruesome chapter of the Nazi era. Nadja Uhl reveals "wild" euthanasia in psychiatry. Oldenburg, 1948: For Margaret Oelkers (Uhl) and her two little sons, the pension is not enough as a war-wittwe behind and in front.

Welcome to Iceland

In the desolate Icelandic highlands, two lowbrow lovers lose their ride, a suited suicide his trigger finger, and a nuclear family their center. Losing their way and their reasons, they fall apart while coming together. A drama rich in comedy, arid plains, and empty stomachs.

Second Unit Director of Photography
Мать Алекса впала в кому незадолго до падения Берлинской стены. А когда, наконец, пришла в себя, не было уже ни ГДР, ни стран «победившего социализма». Тревожась за здоровье матушки, Алекс решил не сообщать ей о переменах: ведь что может стать более убийственным для убеждённой коммунистки, чем торжество капитализма?Сыну пришлось пойти на обман и превратить свою квартиру в островок прошлого, в последний оплот несуществующего государства. Старательно делать вид, что дело Ленина по-прежнему живет и побеждает.
