DAS LEICHTE UND DAS SCHWERE

After a failed suicide attempt, grieving 32-year-old photographer Lukas meets single-parent nurse Nora. While they develop a friendship, they are also trying to find elements of their past lives that they long for in each other: Lukas for his deceased artist girlfriend Maya and Nora for her absent partner Mario. By trying to arrange a posthumous exhibition for Maya, Lukas slowly finds his way back to life at Nora‘s side. But Nora carries a secret that also threatens to destroy their newly found happiness.
