Verlorene Landschaft

In this thoughtful and melancholy drama, a politician returns to his family's rural homestead near the borders of Germany when he learns in a mysterious manner that his parents have died. As he does so, he recalls his almost idyllic farm upbringing, free from the kinds of money-grubbing and backstabbing that he has grown accustomed to in the society around him. - Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
