CGiii Comment

Kerstin floats stoically across the Mecklenburg Lake District in her red GDR kayak. Between tourism and dreariness, she aimlessly glides over the water for days, striving to remain alone. The many rivers and lakes are familiar to her. But where does Kerstin come from? What is she fleeing from? Who is chasing her? The tranquility of this journey is broken when Alima appears, finally asking her the right questions.


Kerstin, die stoische Einzelgängerin in ihren Vierzigern beschließt nach dem Tod ihres Vaters, mit dessen roten Kajak über die Seen von Mecklenburg zu paddeln. Sie flieht vor Vergangenem, ihrem Bruder und vor sich selbst. Auf einem Zeltplatz lernt sie die Alima kennen, die lacht und offen ist. Diese beschließt, die Reise mit der wortkargen Kerstin fortzusetzen, zu der sie auf Anhieb eine Verbindung aufbauen kann. Die beiden unterschiedlichen Frauen kommen sich näher. Aber Kerstin hat die Gabe, aus Situationen einfach zu verschwinden.
