Don’t fill life with days, fill days with life
After her husband’s death, Käthe doesn’t want to impose on anybody. She already ordered old people’s home brochures. But an accidental meeting with the love of her youth Hannes arises old contending feelings. Heartache and disappointment are mixed with desire and intimacy. Is it too late to forgive? Everyday Hannes is waiting for her on a bench in front of Käthe’s house. One day the bench stays empty and Käthe has to make a decision.
