Who hasn't been there: Marie and Florian (Nadine Dubois and Joseph Bundschuh) actually just wanted to eat something at home and watch a movie. But the cozy evening on the sofa turns into a hellish trip through streaming portals, voucher codes, delivery service apps and broken remote controls. Will their relationship survive? In HOME ENTERTAINMENT, Berlinale winner Dietrich Brüggemann transforms the omnipresent digital madness into a comedy that is as weird as it is crazy.
