«Lara Jenkins: ordinary demands

In the elitist world of musicians, does austerity go hand in hand with high standards? With Lara Jenkins, Jan-Ole Gerster follows the daily life of an embittered 60-year-old in search of redemption. On her birthday, her son Viktor is about to give a recital to present his new compositions. At odds with her offspring - or rather, in interstellar freeze - this stepmother decides to buy the twenty or so remaining tickets and makes it her mission to distribute them before the event begins. Can the Jenkins be reconciled?
