Alice

Germany / 2022 / Drama / 05:21 min

Alice is a young woman who has realized her dream of becoming a pantomime. Her ensemble has a show in Paris which she would not have been able to attend if the main cast hadn't dropped out at the last minute. Elsa, the founder of the ensemble, lets Alice play in the show in Paris, but just before they go on stage - since Alice has a lot to carry at the moment - she just had an abortion, quarrel with her father and boyfriend - Elsa has doubts at the decision. Alice is struggling, Monsieur Rouge, the director of the theater, is freaking out. Alice is the last one backstage and reveals her secret there. The film was originally supposed to take place in Paris, but it was shot in Berlin which is why we chose the traditional 1920s bar: the Sally Bowles Bar.
