For single mother Nelly and son Alexej, making the journey from East to West Germany proves easier than anticipated. However, what they find in West Germany is a less than welcoming environment. Having to go through a series of invasive interviews to gain her citizenship, Nelly is uncertain of her new home, and begins to become paranoid of ghosts from her past. Based on the novel Lagerfeuer by Julia Franck, Christian Schwochow’s adaptation offers a gripping and emotional tale that re-examines popular notions of pre-unification East and West Germany.
