Heidi M.<br />
Heidi M. is in her late forties and has a small store in the pulsating center of<br />
Berlin. She goes out in the evenings with her friend Jacqui, but when she is<br />
unexpectedly confronted with romantic love, old wounds are opened. At first,<br />
she is hesitant to open up to a new man. But then she takes the chance to lead<br />
her life in a new direction …<br />
Heidi M. is an extraordinary portrait of a woman, with a mix of melodrama,<br />
social observation and road movie elements.<br />
