Summary
Disturbance
In 2015, the director's best friend took his own life. This person, who never really settled into his new home after fleeing the Yugoslavian war as a child, for years made notes contemplating his existence. These notes contain a self-reflection on his life, which was shaped by war and escape. Following his death, a text was created from the extensive writings he left behind, and this forms the documentary foundation of the film.
Supported by an ensemble of six non-actors and actors, Constantin Hatz turns his best friend's thoughts into a cinematic plot with five episodes. The choice of characters and locations is based on five essential stages of his life. A truck driver, two guests in a workers' housing, a lumberjack, a nurse, and a theater actress deliver the monologue in the first person. These characters tell a life story that isn't their own, but has been lived by someone else, bringing the director's lost friend back into existence.
