Herz Dame (short film)

Herz Dame shows the everyday life of old lady Paula, a life affected by routine and monotony. Human closeness and social relationships are gone with the dead of her husband years ago. But things change when she spontaneously hosts a young unsuccessful actor in her attic and gets confronted with unexpected feelings.
