Ihr Sohn

Short, 23min

Gregor is a musician and dreamer. He likes his life – as long as he doesn’t have to explain himself to his mother Irène. Long ago he gave up hope of being more than a less well-off son for the successful gallerist one day. A radical deterioration of Irène’s health status is forcing Gregor to leave his mother’s shadow and jump over his own.
