SENIORENKINO: Dann passiert das Leben

In the organizer's words:

Senior citizens' movie at the Capitol every last Tuesday of the month

One-off special event in cooperation with the Senior Citizens' Advisory Council of the City of Mainz

For all seniors over 60, including a glass of sparkling wine or orange juice

Hans, who is about to retire as a school principal, feels more like a guest in his wife Rita's life. Their son has long since left home and their long-standing marriage follows a well-established routine in which Rita sets the pace. And if she has her way, there is no reason to change anything. In fact, she doesn't like change. The new tiles in the bathroom are just the beginning of something that worries Rita greatly. All of a sudden, old wounds become visible again. Suddenly they both realize how little they know about their son's life. Suddenly there is this emptiness in their lives. Suddenly it is no longer clear whether they are two individuals or a couple. But then life happens... (Source: distributor)
