75 Mins30-year-old Peter experiences the world differently.
Born without the ability to hear, see or speak, his loving parents and younger sister Christine are his whole world, communicating in a unique, tactile language. Years later, when Peter is diagnosed with autism, his family navigate this new circumstance with a quiet confidence.
Faced with the tumultuous realisation that she will one day be entirely responsible for Peter; Christine and her co-director Cille Hannibal explore the brother-sister relationship through intimate camera work and excerpts from home videos, illustrating the myriad of emotion that comes with dedicating your life to someone else.
“A highly emotional viewing experience from beginning to end … [and] a touching, brutally sincere story of suffering, waiting and love.” – Cineuropa
In Danish with English subtitles.
