Aufbruch

A man leaves his family. A woman leaves a man. He finds her by chance and takes her with him in his rattling scooter - to an empty workshop, to an abandoned house ... Inspired by the Japanese proverb mono no aware (mourning for the flow of things), Wüst transcends religious symbolism into the spiritual. Between reduction and pathos, a powerful, perfectly framed, deeply human drama unfolds. (Florian Widegger)
