Description
Veit Kolbe, a young German soldier, finds himself recovering at Mondsee, a village and lake below Drachenwand mountain in Austria, after being injured fighting in Russia. There, he meets Margot and Margarete, two women who share his hope that life will begin again soon. As the war draws to a close, Veit's nightmares and the ordinary lives of those around him become intertwined. He forms connections with others, including a Brazilian who dreams of returning to Rio de Janeiro and a landlady who rallies her community. However, when Veit's wounds are healed, his next call-up orders arrive, bringing an uncertain fate. The story that unfolds is one of hope and resilience in the face of adversity, as Veit navigates the complexities of life after war.
