“Warisover” is the 7th film in the context of the 15 years of achtung berlin • Festival online retrospective. The 9-minute short film by Carlos Morelli, which can be seen on the Daring Berlin YouTube channel from 6:00 p.m. today, is telling the story of a soldier who comes back from war and gives his mother a first call before returning home. He asks her permission to bring a friend from his battalion who lost his limbs in combat and doesn´t have any family. The mother is overjoyed that her son is returning home and finally accepts to host his friend for a short period of time, because she knows that it is not easy to share daily life with someone “like this”. As the burden of everyday life is distracting the mother from her son a second layer of the unsaid is revealed.
