The Ice Bather

Short Film/Everyday life, Germany 2003

A lonely, homeless woman in the sleet of a deserted city. In her fantasy worlds, she longs for the time of warmth and security, a happy past gone forever. She finds a pair of skates in rubbish bins and dances with them on the ice of a frozen river. Then she notices the little red fish under the ice. And there they are again, the images of the happy past. The woman follows these images under the ice and finds what she has long missed...
