Synopsis
Siblings is based on the eponymous novel of author and director Markus Mörth. The feature film is a modern drama about a current topic. Shot on original locations with a international high-caliber cast and crew, the touching movie portrays the coming of age of two siblings who embark on a dangerous refugee odyseey through Europe with nothing but a lot of courage and the hope for a better life.
In its strong visuality and always close to its main characters and their fate the film is designed for the big screen. Hard reality hits big emotions.
