Der Anfang von etwas

A woman between reality and insanity: a sensitively told psychological drama based on a story by Siegfried Lenz. Anne Hoppe (Ina Weisse), meteorologist at the maritime weather office in Hamburg, has spent the last year mourning her dead husband Harry (Juergen Maurer) who died in the sinking of a container ship. His body was never found. At a memorial service, Anne suddenly imagines she sees her husband among the guests. At first, she thinks she's hallucinating. But when her house is broken into and she spots the intruder as he escapes, Anna is certain: it is Harry. As the police won't take her seriously, she decides to begin her own investigation.
