Synopsis

'One Long Summer' tells the story of Vroni who, as the summer slowly unfolds, experiences her first love in a small Bavarian village. Apart from the daily monotony of farmhouse chores and shy conversations about boys and sex that she has with her friend Gerti, Vroni finds herself drawn, again and again, to the woods, to the caravan of Ales, the young Czech puppeteer. Using a quiet visual language, with soft almost dream-like sequences, 'One Long Summer' shows the sweet melancholy of first love and the dusty, dragging summers of childhood that seemed to be endless.
