Songs of Love and Hate

Rico lives with his wife and two daughters on their vineyard at the foot of the Alps.
The budding sexuality of the enchanting Lilli upsets the previously harmonious life of
the family. The girl becomes a woman and the glance of the father loses its
innocence. Appalled Rico rejects his daughter. His suppressed desire torments him
and the rebuffed daughter finds unusual ways to re-claim her place in the paradise
of childhood. She makes her father the witness of her cruel games. Unable to admit
the truth and unconsciously feeling guilty, he becomes her accomplice.
The mother tries to understand what is happening to her husband, as he becomes
increasingly moody and unapproachable. Only the younger sister remains
unaffected by it all. With the outsider Ronny she experiences the carefree happiness
of her first love.
The situation peaks in a tragic climax that inevitably takes its course. An atmospheric
family drama in which the unuttered, the inexplicable determines and changes
everything.
