The Prodigal Sister

»Death, mourning, doubts of faith – difficult topics, but which "The Prodigal Sister" tells with warm humour and lightness.«

»Deep engagement with faith. The excellently drawn characters, who are played by equally excellent actresses, do not allow any clichés to arise.«

»Polished verbal skirmishes in the Swabian dialect, subtle shifts of meaning and tilting moments balance on a fine line between tragedy and satire. Brilliantly acted.«

»Unusual and successful film, which rolls out faith and doubt, grief and family in a completely different way.«

»Bravely played and with fine humour in inimitable Swabian dialect.«

»"The Prodigal Sister" convinces with a Swabian that is as charming and coherent as the whole film. Remaining in dialect, the verdict here can only be: "Scho' recht!" [Right on!] In any case, one of the ten German films you should have seen this year.«

»More than a successful Swabian tragicomedy.«
