DAS UNVERLÄSSLICHE LEBEN (DRAGONFLIES) is a poetic documentary-fiction hybrid dealing with the inevitable and eternally reoccurring patterns of personal transformation. At the celebration of his parents’ 30th wedding anniversary, Florian, a phlegmatic young German, struggles to relate to the love he is receiving and decides to break all bonds forever. He flees to rural Mexico where he tries to construct an independent and self-determined life, but is ultimately forced into an unexpected transformation of his own, thus confirming the inevitability and eternity of the cycle.
