Burnout
Pelin, a young single mother from the problem neighborhood of Berlin-Wedding, is sent with her three children by different fathers of different nationalities - Robby (seven), Elvis (four) and Roxanne (ten months) - to a mother-child cure in a scenic, paradisiacal spa resort in northern Germany. The cure is intended to give Pelin, who is constantly on a collision course with the youth welfare office and family court, time to reflect and recover physically and mentally.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs its story on the stark contrast between the gritty, pressured reality of Berlin and the artificial, almost sterile paradise of the spa. It explores motherhood under the microscope of social institutions, where personal space and the right to fail are constantly contested.
What lingers after the viewing is a quiet, poignant drama where the silence and peace of the resort speak louder than any argument, exposing internal fractures and fragile hopes. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Verena S. Freytag
