The Goethe-Institut and German Week Melbourne present the hilarious comedy Everything’s Fifty Fifty by German Iranian filmmaker Alireza Golafshan – screened in German with English subtitles.

Golafshan takes an intelligent look at his characters, exploring whether the desire for harmony within blended families is viable. He sets the story around a family holiday in Italy, even though the parents are not in a romantic relationship anymore.

Moritz Bleibtreu (Run Lola, run) embodies a divorced man on holiday with his ex-wife, played by a brilliant Laura Tonke, and their son. The parents realise that the fifty-fifty parenting style they agreed on leaves gaps in their son’s upbringing that they did not notice earlier.

Everything’s Fifty Fifty captivates with its quick-witted dialogue and humorous portrayal of modern parenting issues. Critics particularly praise the authentic portrayal of family dynamics.

Be part of this unique screening, complemented by a welcome drink.
