Maria Speth : 2014
Töchter
Agnes, a teacher from the Hessian provinces, has come to Berlin to identify a dead girl who might be Lydia, her fifteen-year-old runaway daughter. It turns out not to be Lydia, but Agnes stays in the city in the hope of finding her. Her search leads her to some disturbing places, which she isn't used to frequenting: homeless shelters and the meeting points of drug addicts. Still frantically looking, she comes across a young stray called Ines, a passionate social parasite who will infiltrate Agnes's life. A story about a caring mother whose daughter is indeed loved, her disappearance leaving behind a blind spot. It is Ines whose provocative behaviour and intrusive questions force Agnes to rethink the relationship between herself and her daughter. Maria Speth's third feature premiered at Berlin International Film Festival 2014.
