Rike

Filmforum, Germany 2026, 11 Min., ger. OV, engl. st

A young woman is crying. A new day begins. Rike works as a painter and varnisher. Every day follows a set routine. The same work clothes, the same route, the same colleagues. Even the work itself – applying the paint, sticking on the protective film – is always the same. After work, she buys herself a bouquet of flowers, and something begins to change.

Director Sophia Schachtner
