Mother’s Joy / Mutterglück

Sarah and Daniel are having a baby. Sarah is 19, Daniel 24.
We made another film with Sarah, THE HOME, about her time in a children’s home. She was 12. Her mother died 11 years before. Later, we visited Sarah in the home again, when she was 15. Her sister Nancy was pregnant, at 19. Sarah thought that was stupid.
Sarah now has a baby with Daniel and they call her Marie.
Sarah, Marie and Daniel.
Daniel also grew up without his parents.
A short film about the possibility of love in a world where love is seldom seen.
