HOMESICK
The film tells the story of ambitious cello student Jessica, who moves into her first apartment with her boyfriend Lorenz. When she receives the honorable invitation to represent Germany at an international classical music competition, it is her big chance - but at the same time it also means enormous pressure. Her tension gradually begins to eat into her everyday life and soon reality and imagination seem to blur.
