Synopsis

Director Janna Ji Wonders tells the story of the women in her family over the last century. The film’s unifying element and silent chronicler is Lake Walchensee in Bavaria, where the family opened a café in 1920 which still exists today. After four generations of diaspora, Janna returns with her mother to Walchensee and finds clues in the bond between four generations of women and their very different approaches to life.
