Das Leben der Wünsche
Felix is caught in both a personal and professional crisis: his wife Bianca wants to separate, his relationship with his children is falling apart, and even his physical appearance—marked by increasing hair loss—troubles him deeply. After losing his job, he encounters a mysterious stranger who offers him three wishes. Felix opts for one all-encompassing wish: that all his wishes should come true. At first, his dreams of career success, family harmony, and physical transformation are fulfilled. But soon, repressed and unconscious desires begin to surface, pulling him into a downward spiral of longing and self-doubt.
