Baumstämme im Schnee I Treetrunks in the Snow

Fiction, AT 2015, 21 min.

"For we are like tree trunks in the snow. In appearance they lie smoothly and a little push should be enough to set them rolling. No, it can't be done, for they are firmly wedded to the ground. But see, even that is only appearance." A quote from a short story by Franz Kafka opens a film in which the theme of life's uncertainties is a drama of a family: the unexpected disappearance of 23 year old Benjamin becomes a puzzle that seems to be missing its key pieces.
