Germany 2024 | 70 mins | Cert: NR | Director: Justine Bauer
With: Karolin Northacker, Johanna Wokalek, Pauline Bullinger
Set during an idyllic, languid, sensual summer, the film follows Katinka, a young woman determined to continue her family’s farming tradition despite the looming economic challenges facing the sector.
Three generations of female farmers under one roof. Anna is pregnant and only thinks about castrations. Katinka wears her bikini in the milking parlour, but grandma’s tomatoes have turned out better this year than ever before. Farming in general is suffering, and more and more farms are having to close. But Katinka is holding on to the family business and is seeking her future in a place that remembers how things once were.
“Justine Bauer’s feature debut stands out for its authentic and emotional portrayal of rural life in Germany.” Cineuropa
