Synopsis
The Chechen refugee kids Oskar (8) and Lilli
(13), who have been living in Austria for six years,
are about to be deported along with their mother.
When their mother attempts suicide it results in
the short-term suspension of the deportation –
but also in the forced separation of the family.
The children’s hope that they will be reunited with
their mother is nourished by their love for each
other and challenges all bureaucratic obstacles
with passion and poetry. A bitter-sweet odyssey
about the many ways of perceiving the world
around you in order to survive.
