Songs of Love and Hate

It is summer and Rico, his wife and their two teenage daughters are helping out in the family vinyard, in the foothills of the beautiful Swiss Alps. Lilli (15) and her younger sister would prefer to do something else with their free time, however. Lilli in particular, who has just got her first boyfriend and is experimenting with her emerging sexuality, is behaving in a truly pubescent way. Once Rico’s ‘princess’, her father is shocked to see his eldest daughter becoming a woman. Lilli's teenage rebelliousness takes on some quite extreme forms, and she is driving a wedge through this once so loving family.
Gödrös’ familiy drama shows the the power children can exert over their parents - and vice versa. A typical yet also universal story about breaking out of the safety of the family and about the mistakes that can be made growing up. The character of Lilli is particularly well developed in short, pithy scenes.
