The Filmfest Schleswig-Holstein shows films and audio-visual works from the state and about the state - as a showcase for the diverse film scene in Schleswig-Holstein.

Rocko Schamoni plays a rock star aging in the isolation of his castle, whose everyday life takes place somewhere between daily toast and Ludwig II. Posters and prizes remind us of his greatest, possibly only successes, which he celebrated in the 80s of the last century. Otherwise, there is now emptiness in his house and life.

Filmic essay about memories of war and their omnipresence, which never seems to abate. Based on personal and autobiographical reflections, the film traces the traces that war experiences leave behind. Through the presence of ever new violent conflicts, they have a permanent effect on one's own emotional world and family relationships.
