“Mes Amies” (Meine Freundinnen/​​My Friends)

Three friends, three women in their late forties: their past, their frustrations, their love stories, sex stories, their children or absence of children, their desires, their loneliness, their friendship, their future. From sun set to sun rise, they drink and talk, from bar to park, from the agitated streets of a big city to the poetically suspended quietness of a skating rink and its ice-dancer. Their fourth and best friend just had a car accident and they are reunited in this moment of anxious waiting for a long night between life and death. It is the portrait of strong and inspired women who tell the world their will to live, in spite of their potential doubts, their possible weaknesses.
