The Days between

GER 2001, 79 min

With inevitable intensity – the portrait of a young woman, wandering around in the urban setting of Berlin. 

Synopsis

The days between in which 22-year-old Lynn drifts among the various worlds shes caught up in. Life at home with her brother, his wife and their two kids allows her to enjoy a family environment without being too involved. Lynn lives spontaneously, waiting for what the days bring. While her day job in a cafeteria leaves her drowsy, earning money as a dancer in a trendy night club allows her to release her explosive energy. Without precise goals, Lynn has more and more difficulty relating to her disciplined boyfriend David, a professional swimmer who sees her only according to his strenuous practice schedule. Lynns love life takes a turn when she meets Japanese student Koji. He shares her sense of freedom and sensuality, but not her language. Although Koji can barely speak German, Lynn feels comfortable communicating with him at the same time she doesnt want.
