"Woman: Shared Sensibilities, A Collective Voice for Equality"
SOUND OF FALLING
IN DIE SONNE SCHAUEN
Four girls, Alma, Erika, Angelika, and Lenka, each spend their youth on the same farm in northern Germany. As the home evolves over a century, echoes of the past linger in its walls. Though separated by time, their lives begin to mirror each other.
ಅಲ್ಮಾ, ಎರಿಕಾ, ಆಂಜೆಲಿಕಾ ಮತ್ತು ಲೆಂಕಾ ಎಂಬ ನಾಲ್ಕು ಹುಡುಗಿಯರು, ಉತ್ತರ ಜರ್ಮನಿಯ ಹಳ್ಳಿಯಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಒಂದೇ ಫಾರ್ಮ್ನಲ್ಲಿ ತಮ್ಮ ಯೌವನವನ್ನು ಕಳೆಯುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಶತಮಾನವಿಡೀ ಆ ಮನೆ ರೂಪಾಂತರಗೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಾ ಹೋದಂತೆ, ಅದರ ಗೋಡೆಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಭೂತಕಾಲದ ಪ್ರತಿಧ್ವನಿಗಳು ಉಳಿದುಕೊಂಡಿರುತ್ತವೆ. ಕಾಲದಿಂದ ವಿಭಜಿತರಾಗಿದ್ದರೂ, ಅವರ ಬದುಕುಗಳು ಒಂದಕ್ಕೊಂದು ಪ್ರತಿಬಿಂಬವಾಗಲು ಆರಂಭಿಸುತ್ತವೆ.
