A journey through Germany in search of ones identity: the moving family saga - Novemberkind
Novemberkind A Film about Death, Lies and Family Secrets


Ingas mother is gone. She is raised by her grandparents. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, a stranger shows up at their door, claiming to have met her mother. Slowly the truth comes to light: her mother is not dead, but escaped from East Germany years before. NOVEMBERKIND is a graduate thesis film from Christian Schwochow, who studied at the Baden-Württemberg Film Academy. It is an extraordinarily intense and emotional family drama. Anna Maria Mühe is utterly convincing in double role as both mother and daughter. Our film of the month.
