ein Sommer lang<br />

ONE LONG SUMMER<br />

One Long Summer tells the story of Vroni who, as the<br />

summer slowly unfolds, experiences her first love in a<br />

small Bavarian village.<br />

Apart from the daily monotony of farmhouse chores and<br />

shy conversations about boys and sex that she has with<br />

her friend Gerti, Vroni finds herself drawn, again and<br />

again, to the woods, to the caravan of Ales, the young<br />

Czech puppeteer.<br />

Using a quiet visual language, with soft almost dream-like<br />

sequences, One Long Summer shows the sweet melancholy<br />

of first love and the dusty, dragging summers of<br />

childhood that seemed to be endless.<br />
