Risiken & Nebenwirkungen

Kathrin (Inka Friedrich) needs a new kidney. Her husband Arnold (Samuel Finzi) could donate one to her. But he is not in such a hurry to selflessly support his wife with this vital organ. Their mutual friend Götz (Thomas Mraz), on the other hand, offers to be a donor without hesitation. This, in turn, displeases his wife Diana (Pia Hierzegger). Two potential kidney donors put two marriages and the friendship between four people to the test. A film about taking everything for granted. And about how wrong you can be. A comedy about existential love that goes straight to the heart, not the kidneys. Michael Kreihsl has already successfully adapted the popular play ‘Die Wunderübung’ for the screen. Once again, he proves his flair for successfully adapting a stage hit for the screen.
