A grieving woman at the grave of her lover. A love tragedy that takes place at a fun fair. The miracle of a newborn. Anna Faroqhi creates timeless, silent film miniatures based on three songs from the cycle Dichterliebe by Robert Schumann – interpretations of poems by Heinrich Heine – sung by Faroqhi herself. All three songs and films are about love. A tribute to early film.
