Description

After more than 40 years, Josefa returns to her parents’ farm in the village she’d once stormed out of. Back then, she was still known as Josef but has since moved to the city and started a new life as a woman. A lot has changed since then, and she must confront her memories, especially concerning Petra, to whom she was once married as well as her soul mate and best friend Blume. Unexpressed emotions and misunderstandings flare up. Josefa’s Return is a powerful family tragedy about misconceptions, true identities and the ghosts of time passed.
