Solange wir leben-Premiere

In the organizer's words:

"I have a great longing for this very special kind of world, in which you can work and breathe and sometimes be madly happy." (Anna Seghers) - In his most personal novel, Bremen-based author David Safier tells the story of his parents Waltraut and Joschi with tenderness and drama. It takes them from Vienna in the 1930s through the prisons of the Gestapo to Tel Aviv, the Palestine War and later onto the world's oceans. Joschi, a Jew who never wanted to set foot on German soil again, becomes a sailor - and falls in love while ashore in an ice cream parlor in Bremen, of all places. Waltraut is twenty years younger, the daughter of a shipyard worker in Walle and already a single widow when they first meet. Together they have a son, David. Their lives are full of ups and downs. After "The Eighth Life (For Brilka)", in-house director Alize Zandwijk once again devotes herself to a touching family epic, a novel about the world and her homeland at the same time.
