Sidney Fahlisch celebrates a premiere at the festival in Hof
Svenja (Sidney Fahlisch) longs to be closer to her father. As a globetrotter and serial founder of families, Ralf was more absent than present all her life. When he falls terminally ill with cancer, it suddenly becomes unclear whether they can still overcome the distance that has grown between them. A seemingly trivial tradition of their patchwork family helps: playing rummy.
“Karo Dame, Herz König” premieres on Thursday, 22 October 2026, at 8:30 pm at Central 5 in Hof. You can find further screening times on the festival page of the Hof International Film Festival.
Director: Susann Frömmer – Producer: Kirill Krasovski with Blue Monticola GmbH
