Noch ein Kind — Still a Kid, is a film that poses the question of healing by delving into the complex dynamics of a Turkish-German family across three generations. From their struggles with immigrating, to facing patriarchal violence and inherited trauma, the film spans three years, set between Berlin and rural Antalya, Turkey. At the center is photographer Abdulhamid Kircher, who grapples with reconciling with his once estranged father through his photography.
