Herzsprung

Schlagfertig, witzig, prickelnd, eben richtig aus dem Leben gegriffen: was soll Puppe Sturm tun, als ihr geliebtes Bülow-Bärchen, der adlige Freund mit "tollem Hintern", plötzlich liebäugelnd in andere Richtungen schaut? Ein bisschen frech, manchmal zickig, selbstbewusst und wenn es darauf ankommt so richtig trotzig: Ulrike Grote, schon aus Mondscheintarif bekannt, spricht die Rolle der Hauptakteurin, als erzählte sie aus ihrem eigenen Leben. Überzeugend, lebendig und frisch, glaubhaft und engagiert. Nicht ganz so enthusiastisch und auch nicht ganz der Rolle des angesehenen Anwalts und Traummannes akustisch entsprechend: Dietmar König als Philipp von Bülow.

In the little town of Herzsprung almost nothing has changed since German unification – except a rise in unemployment. Johanna, a young mother and widow, becomes one of the unemployed and lives on welfare. To make matters worse, her husband commits suicide and she falls in love with a dark-skinned, roving adventurer; the whole village starts talking about it.

It was once the source of life, light and warmth. But now the sun has turned the entire world into baked and barren wasteland. Forests are scorched. Animal carcasses line the roads. Even the nights are dazzling bright. Marie (Hanna Herzsprung), her little sister Leonie (Lisa Vicari) and Phillip (Lars Eidinger) are heading for the mountains in a car with covered windows. Rumor has it there is still water there. Along the way they run into Tom (Stipe Erceg), a first-rate mechanic that becomes indispensible. But can they trust him? Tension grows in the small group. As if things weren't bad enough, they are lured into an ambush. Their real battle for survival begins.
