Garland

In the organizer's words:

"Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
There's a land that I have heard of once in a lullaby."
-Judy Garland

We are in America near Penig, in the district of Central Saxony. The climate crisis has turned this area into a desert. The catastrophe is permanent, no one here knows how to spell the word hope. Except for one person: Dorothee Sturm. Her mission: to save the world. It's a pity that she has a lot of courage and, above all, bad luck. Her aunt and uncle's godforsaken farm is on fire and she is wanted by the police on suspicion of arson. Police officer Gus Brandt, who is stranded in the middle of nowhere on an empty tank, is entrusted with this task. Meanwhile, journalist Lorna Luft - overworked and underpaid - hosts her radio show "HOT TIMES" and talks to low-budget arthouse filmmaker and part-time long-distance driver Salvatore Toto Brandt. His latest disaster film urgently needs to be promoted, because unfortunately the audience is staying away. And as if that wasn't enough, Judy Garland turns up behind the counter at a run-down gas station and serves sandwiches. Bad dream or great cinema? Both.
