Description:

In the early 1980s, a woman strolls through East Berlin after work because she doesn't want to be the first one home. In Moscow, a writer is supposed to portray the prima ballerina Ulanova, waits for days to meet her and then experiences something unexpected. A child breathes in for the first time, a grandmother breathes out for the last time. And a middle-aged woman tries to deal with a cancer diagnosis. These stories tell of longing and wanderlust, of dictatorship and inner freedom, of being human and remaining human. Only Helga Schubert can get to the bottom of life so accurately and so laconicly.
