Production: Amour Fou
Developed with adviser David Wingate during the 2009 Sources 2 workshop in Graz/Austria.
Worldpremiere at Berlinale 2013, section Forum.
"An Austrian woman has been forced to live alone with her children ever since her husband Karamo was deported to Africa. A man tries to instil hope in his Chinese wife that she will soon be allowed to return to Vienna. Others talk of the long wait for residence permits, of struggles with forms and offices, of German courses, income statements and domestic spot checks by the police which infer that their marriage is a sham. The complicated, state regulated reality experienced by various bi-national couples forms the basis for this formally unusual political documentary."
