Overview

Christin, a successful district judge, had long since given up on love, until a hot-air-balloon pilot named Max enters her life. What begins as a fleeting encounter develops into a tender, surprising connection: Christin has chosen to live alone, in the reliable company of her chatbot Hermann, but now Max is turning her structured world upside down. Although the single father is the same age as Christin’s daughter Miriam, he doesn’t fall in love with her—he falls in love with Christin.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A woman who has built a solitary, orderly life finds it pleasantly disrupted by an unexpected romance that challenges everything she thought she knew about herself. It's a tender, slightly absurd love story that takes the unconventional seriously.
