Familiengruft

Biography/Short Film, Germany 1982

Maria Lang calls her montage of old family photos and newly shot film footage "A declaration of love to my mother". Her autobiographical commentary describes family circumstances that were not atypical for the post-war period in a small-town, petit-bourgeois milieu - with a dominating father and a patiently serving mother.
