A groundbreaking comedy from Germany that, for the first time, presents a modern Jewish family neither as victims nor tortured survivors, but as a complex and conflicted family unit hilariously at-odds as they seek to fulfill the last wishes of the family matriarch. Can two brothers—one a pool-shark from East Berlin, the other an Orthodox Jew from the West—make it through a week of sitting shiva together in order to inherit their mother’s fortune?
Co-sponsored by the Goethe-Institut Washington
