Synopsis
Australian premiere
Vier minus drei
Direct from the 2026 Berlinale, this deeply emotional drama and ode to precious memories directed by Adrian Goiginger (The Fox) is based on the bestselling novel and incredible true story of Barbara Pachl-Eberhart, featuring an outstanding performance from Valerie Pachner (A Hidden Life).
Barbara and her partner Heli (Robert Stadlober, Das Boot series) are professional clowns, leading a joy-filled, alternative lifestyle with their two children. They do not take life too seriously and try to laugh whenever things fail to work out.
But when Barbara faces an unimaginable tragedy, her world falls apart. In the face of unspeakable loss, her belief in humour, hope, and humanity is put to the ultimate test, but, courageous and unconventional, Barbara finds her own way of dealing with her grief. Her unique way of seeing the world, with both its light and shadow, helps her find a way back; step-by-step she will realise that life and laughter do go on, if she dares to embrace it anew.
