Nikolai Mohr

In a small North German village a drama played out during and shortly after the Second World War about duty versus individual conscience and morality.

Katharina became a mother after an artificial insemination when she died in a traffic accident. Although her wife Ellen is the guardian of little Franz, she has custody - unlike in heterosexual marriages - without adoption but not. And not only the biological father of the child, also the parents of the deceased Katharina make claims.
