Together, a filmmaker and her characters venture into a personal research project about intimacy. On the fluid border between reality and fiction, the feature follows the emotional journeys of Laura, Tómas and Christian, offering an empathic insight into their lives. Craving for intimacy, yet also deeply afraid of it, they work to overcome old patterns, defense mechanisms and taboos, to cut the cord and finally be free.
Winner of the Golden Bear and of the best first feature award at the Berlin International Film Festival.
