Lügen über meine Mutter (2026)

The story tells of growing up in provincial West Germany in the 1980s, in a family where one subject dominates everything: the mother's body weight. Is this beautiful, strong-willed, unpredictable woman too big? Does she really need to lose weight? Yes, she does. Decides her husband, who is increasingly dominated by the obsession that his wife's overweight is responsible for everything he is being denied: the promotion, the social ascent, the approval in the village community. And the mother is exposed to this, day after day.
