Plot (excerpt)

Viktor Looser (Mathias Gnädinger) searches of forgiveness, and revisits places joint with his emotions and mistakes from the past, but instead of constantly focusing on his daughter's Anna (Bibiana Beglau) death. He finally gets in touch with her life, far away from Switzerland, in Sicily, where Anna felt drawn to in the mid 1980s after completing her degree in Italian. The spirited student left behind her involvement in the youth rebellion of the 1980s in Zürich, and, to her father's disappointment, Anna passed up the opportunity of a career at the university...

Reception
