Summary

The Light

Tim Engels, his wife Milena, their twins Frieda and Jon, and Milena's other son Dio, are a complex modern family living in a Berlin apartment. Their habits enable them to keep their lives separate even as they move through the shared spaces of their home. It is not until the enigmatic Farrah – recently arrived from Syria – is placed in their home as the new housekeeper, that their world is put to the test and hidden feelings come to light. It is an experience that expands and alters the lives of the family in unexpected ways as Farrah sets a plan in motion that will bring a new dimension to how they experience and understand the human condition.
