DIE ANDERE SEITE

Since losing her family, a woman is living alone in the wilderness – far away from society which is dominated by mistrust and fear after the outbreak of a fatal disease. When she is forced to leave this life behind, she not only experiences a boundless freedom, but also remembers the importance of human closeness and the feeling of belonging.

“THE OTHER SIDE explores whether it is possible to overcome the boundaries – both between countries and between people – that define our divided world,” says director Mariko Minoguchi whose debut feature RELATIVITY won the German Film Critics’ Awards for “Best Debut Film” and “Best Screenplay” in 2020.
