Karo and the Good Lord

Society/Family, Austria 2006

Not available
On the day of Karos's First Communion, her parents' marital problems are revealed. The subsequent separation hits her right in the heart. Via walkie talkie Karo complains to the Lord about her desperate situation. A gruff voice answers, finally pretending to be God and involuntarily providing the proof of this. When Karo gets to see the man behind it, she is overcome with doubt. With the goal of reconciling her parents in mind, she forces the man into his divine role and thus helps her. The attempts staged by Karo and God to save the parental marriage trigger a rollercoaster of emotions.
