The Friday movie shows: A million minutes June 21 | 20:00

'A Million Minutes' is a fairy tale from contemporary Germany and at the same time the true story of a family in which a father is inspired by his daughter's wish and four people embark on the journey of a lifetime. Everyone knows it: the really important things aren't on the stupid to-do lists. But why not? From the outside, Vera (Karoline Herfurth) and Wolf Küper (Tom Schilling) lead a dream life with their two children Nina (Pola Friedrichs) and her one-year-old brother Simon (Piet Levi Busch): a nice apartment in Berlin, he has a career as a biodiversity researcher at the UN, she has a job as a construction engineer specializing in sustainability alongside the household and children. But on closer inspection, things look very different. Their marriage is in crisis and, like most couples, they are both in the unfortunate dilemma of juggling everyday life with the feeling that they can no longer do life justice. When Nina is diagnosed with developmental delay, Wolf and Vera realize that something has to change fundamentally. One night at bedtime, Nina suddenly says: "Oh, Dad, I wish we had a million minutes. Just for the really nice things, you know?". The wish hits Wolf right in the heart and he suddenly realizes that it is much more important how Nina, Vera and Simon are doing and that every minute they spend together is more valuable than a brilliant career. 1 million minutes, 694 days, almost 2 years, here we go! First to Thailand, then on to Iceland. The Küpers set off in search of a new, different way of life and realize anew every day: we only have every minute once.
