Landschaft mit Dornen

The divorced florist Maria falls in love with the fated Holger, whose little son was killed two years ago in an accident with a driver's escape. Maria also has a son: the now-grown Niklas, a very talented pianist who has a great career in the eyes of his proud mother. But appearances are deceptive: little by little Maria finds out that two years ago Niklas gave up his career as a pianist because of a shocking experience that completely threw him off track. Is he perhaps the death driver?

Der Mond und andere Liebhaber narrates the story of Hanna, a woman who will not take lifes set-backs and knock-downs sitting down. Instead, she takes them in her stride, picks herself up and marches onward. This is a woman who continually draws new courage from her inexhaustible will to live. Whatever losses and uncertainties come her way, she remains true to herself.
