Georg Stefan Troller, born in Vienna in 1921, crossed half of Europe as a refugee only to return with the US army in 1945 . As a filmmaker he became a chronicler of his time and with this film he engages in some bold and self-ironic navel gazing.
Bele is 16 and has big hands and feet. Nothing's right: neither her coat, her first love, nor the first video she shoots with friends. And Agnes, her wonderful mom, isn't right either. Agnes is the opposite of Bele: She is pretty, successful, perfect. She gets the good things that life has to offer, such as a fulfilling job and a new lover. If only it weren't for her daughter Bele, who mercilessly expresses her needs as only a 16-year-old "bad girl" can.
