Director: Eva Trobisch

Feature, 2026

Synopsis

The summer palace of a German provincial town is being expensively renovated, the neighbourhoods around it are decaying. Only the white peacock from the palace garden gets lost in it.
“Who are you and what makes you special?” Lea is asked by the EB team of a casting show. She doesn’t know. And she begins to search for a suitable self, while dead bats under cake bells cause uncertainty in her family’s hotel.

It’s a family story. And a melange.
