Sunday, May 11 @ 12:30 pm

Eleven-year-old Sebastian, a bright, cheeky little scamp, sees life as one big adventure, yet believes he is responsible for his mother’s death because she died while giving birth to him. Apart from this “homicide” – a transgression for which his older brother Franz refuses to forgive him – he has an array of other terrible misdeeds to answer for and has consequently become accustomed to battling the scourges of purgatory on a nightly basis.

dir. Marcus H. Rosenmüller, 1h42m, 35mm
