Detroit

2003 · 78 min

A quiet, puzzling road trip that keeps you slightly off-balance, piecing together a journey where the same faces return and the real reason for the visit stays just out of reach.

Drama
Starring
Christoph Bach, Sebastian Achilles, Diana Maier
Overview
Edzard is on his way from Berlin to Braunschweig to visit his family. During the trip the reason of his visit becomes clear, or doesn't it? During the trip he meets several people, most of them more than once. How this is possible becomes not quite clear until the end.
