Synopsis
Gerald Uhlig, a unique Berlin creative and founder of the Einstein coffee house, suffers from the rare disease Morbus Fabry. The only thing that keeps him alive is the promise he made to his wife Mara on her deathbed – to survive until their daughter Geraldina is able to stand on her own two feet. But Gerald's vital energies are dwindling. After his death, it becomes clear that Geraldina has not only inherited his illness but also his irrepressible will to live. She is bent on fighting her inherited condition and fulfilling her greatest desire: Becoming a mother to healthy children.
