A Million Minutes, © Christopher Doll
As part of this year's European Union Film Festival, which is taking place in Ottawa, Toronto and Vancouver, we are delighted to be able to show a German film from the year 2024!
About the movie:
Vera and Wolf Küper live in Berlin with their five-year-old daughter Nina and one-year-old son Simon. Vera (Karoline Herfurth) takes care of the household and has a part-time job, while Wolf (Tom Schilling) works as an advisor to the UN, trying to raise awareness about the global climate crisis. This stressful, not exactly family-friendly schedule puts increasing strain on the Küpers. When Nina is diagnosed with a fine motor and coordination disorder, the family is suddenly shaken from its routine. Bravely deciding to change their lives, Vera and Wolf embark on an exploration of the planet to show their children—and themselves—why life is worth living. This directorial debut from longtime producer Christopher Doll is a touching, amusing, profound, and unforgettable journey.
In German with English subtitles | 2024 | 125 minutes
