Sunshine Eyes
Berlin, spring 2020. A city in Lockdown. The two sisters Leonie (14) and Lea (16), separated after the death of their mother ten years earlier, are looking forward to living together with their grandmother Edda. But mixed with the anticipation is disturbing news from Wuhan, China. It is not long before the virus reaches Edda's household and the sisters are confronted with dramatic changes. Lea wants to protect Leonie, but is trapped in an impossible situation. She reaches out for help, but everyone around her is starring in their own lockdown dramas.
