Relationship-Wise

Two people find each other, and then what? A filmprogram about relationships and all there is to them. Why do couples come together and stay that way despite many differences, or do they have much more in common than meets the eye? We look at charming everyday habits but also at new partners that can give us a completely different sense of self. And then there's the realization, that each relationship works according to its own specific rules.

Nation For Two

Nation For Two

A man and a woman dig their underground way towards each other from two remote locations in the world, whilst leaving physical threads wherever they pass. The wandering quest travels trough a wide collage of landscapes in nature, war zones, cities and industrial areas. NATION FOR TWO portrays in a surreal manner the idea that love knows neither nationality nor geographical boundaries.

Ein Moment von Sprache und Sprachlosigkeit in der Beziehung zwischen Mann und Frau – und eine Hommage an eine Szene aus dem Film „Die Dinge des Lebens” („Les Choses de la vie“) von Claude Sautet (1969).
