15 nominated films of Tiantan Awards


5.Home for the Weekend

Germany

Director: Hans-Christian Schmid

Germany has two nominated films. Home for the Weekend is the work of famous director Hans-Christian Schmid, starring Lars Eidinger and well-known German actress Corinna Harfouch in the lead roles.

It tells the story of a normal German household, where the mother, who has certain mental issues, decides that she doesn't wish to receive treatment anymore and resolves to leaving the home, causing subtle psychological changes in the other family members and intensification of the conflicts between them, causing what originally seemed to be a stable family fall apart at the seams. It reflects the lifestyles of upper-class families in Europe.
