Movie

Abschied in Berlin

Untracked, even confused, but not unfunny, this attempt by two old people to escape. It has become too cramped in the Berlin apartment shared by three generations of a Chilean immigrant family when the paralyzed grandfather decides to return to his Chilean homeland. Under the suspicious gaze and accompanied by impotent attempts at action by the other family members, he sets off with his wife and an uncle. Their odyssey through Berlin lasts exactly one day.
