Synopsis
Mother and daughter, both from East Germany: one lived through it, the other did not. Tamara was born in 1990. Like many from the post-reunification generation, she left her homeland and only visits on special occasions, like round birthdays. But everything that seemed secure crumbles within a few days, leaving Tamara (Linda Pöppel) and her mother Barbara (Lina Wendel) behind. The two struggle with their relationships, inseparable from the societal developments in which their family was formed, grew, and fell apart. Now, Tamara must confront what she has been running away from: her own history. She must let go of what she has never experienced.
