Those Who Fall Have Wings



Peter Brunner : 2015
Jeder der fällt hat Flügel

Time stands still for young and asthmatic Kati, but she has to bid her farewell to move on. The burden on her chest is too heavy for the shoulders of her four-year-old baby sister. A severe loss and the awakening of Kati's sexuality take their toll on the fifteen-year-old visionary girl. But like a sound that merges into silence, Kati attempts to carry her memories to a place of recurring farewell. A soul-searching study, whose title acknowledges inspiration from Ingeborg Bachmann's poetry, it is a cinematically ambitious, symbol-based method of coming to terms with the painful loss of a loved one. Peter Brunner's feature was winner of the Special Jury Prize when it premiered in competition at Karlovy Vary International Film Festival 2015.
