SYNOPSIS

MARK (16) discovers a photo of ANGELA, his grandfather JOHANNES’ (80) youthful love — a sensitive and unresolved chapter. Intrigued by the mystery, Mark encourages the usually reserved Johannes to open up. As their conversation unfolds, the two gradually dive deep into Johannes’ past. Slowly, unexpected parallels to Mark’s own life begin to emerge — and Johannes turns the tables. From interviewee, he becomes the interviewer, sensing that Mark, too, is hiding something. What begins as a quiet exchange turns into an intimate chamber play about longing, vulnerability, and the secrets shared between two generations. Together, they reflect on love — its challenges, its echoes, and its meaning across time.
