Das Zimmer<br />
THE ROOM<br />
70<br />
Sophie and Christoph are looking after a house with a locked room – where<br />
everything (…or nothing) can be concealed from others. They project their<br />
hidden thoughts and memories into this locked room. ”All houses have a<br />
forbidden room“ says Christoph, Sophie’s answer, ”just like our souls.“<br />
Between dream and reality, they develop a labyrinth of emotions. The heart<br />
of the story is not the mysterious incidents in the house, but rather the hidden<br />
feelings of the occupants.<br />
