“Since the death of my friend, one question has never left me: could there be a world in which she would have wanted to live? A world where no one is left alone with their problems, where we have the time and space to truly care for the needs of others? A world full of care?”

The director tells the stories of four people who put care and compassion at the center of their lives. Arnold from Hamburg looks after his disabled son Nico 24 hours a day, yet still finds the strength to fight tirelessly for the rights of family caregivers. 

Bożena, a Polish live-in carer whose life changed dramatically after working in Germany, now supports other carers and encourages them to stand up for their rights. Amanda, an activist from Peru, can no longer watch as the climate crisis destroys her family’s environment. She knows that human health and the health of the planet are one and the same. And Samuel, a wheelchair user who loves spending nights in the sauna with friends, is building an inclusive home.

They all want to make the world a place of tenderness and care. But they know painfully well how difficult this is: while sustaining life every day, they themselves often live on the edge of exhaustion. Society rarely notices, and even more rarely values, their work — there is never enough time or money to care for oneself and others in a dignified and sufficient way.

They want to change everything. But how?

After the screening there will be a meeting with actress Bożena Domańska.
