GESCHWISTER AM LIMIT

GESCHWISTER AM LIMIT tells the story of Isa and Hape – two siblings who had a steep music career at a young age, were shaken by life and are now taking stock in order to perhaps (or even more) dare to do everything again. In their autobiographical-fictitious play, they report on formative experiences: flight of fancy and stagnation, existential hardship and health restrictions, music as a service and as ecstasy.

Hans-Peter Pfammatter and Isa Wiss stand both for themselves and as examples for countless musicians along the entire spectrum of success. As "siblings at the limit", they reach for the stars – and in doing so touch on the universal longing for visibility and belonging.
