Bad memory. A newspaper article promised a reward for the return of the head of the garden figure, which will be paid without making claims and without asking unnecessary questions to the one who will bring it, so Wolfgang decided to try his luck, sneaking through the fence at the address indicated in it with the find found at the dead homeless mansion, finding a rich mansion on the spot, and next to it a decapitated female figure at an overgrown pond, where he, trying on, dropped the ill-fated head.
The owner of the house must have had a plan when, after catching a teenager diving into the pond, he offered him a place in the barn, having previously made sure that he would not be put on the wanted list - so at least thought Wolfgang's friend, assuming that the benefactor would demand something in return, but failed to convince a comrade who was silent about what he was hiding under the water.
A wealthy theater director, a man commanded assistants on the phone, came daily from Munich to this house, visiting an old woman who was broken by a stroke, who was taken to the garden in the morning by a pretty Polish nurse who read a boring book to her in a boring voice, before invariably putting an apple in the naughty palm of her grandmother, as it seemed to everyone, detached from the world.
A skilled playwright, the owner, it seems, acted out his play here, but it is difficult to determine how exactly he was going to use the teenager, leaving him all day alone with his paralyzed mother, on whom he held either a cold resentment or a past evil, perhaps choosing the boy as an instrument of her torture, a means of revenge for parental strictness, which he recalls, explaining with a street child.
But all plans are shattered when the statue finally returns to its head, and Wolfgang makes contact with the old woman, shedding an amazing light of kindness and mutual understanding. And this unforeseen contact obviously breaks the script of the production, where the son is removed from his mother, giving free rein to the vengeful force of his resentment.
Nebula and vagueness, understatement and uncertainty: the director operates with signs, twice repeating the scene where first the son sits next to his mother, looking at a crippled figure in the garden, and then the same shot (taken out on the poster of this film) is made up of a grandmother (enchanted by Helga Goering) and a teenager (Marcus Fleischer with a naked soul) who sits in front of a statue with a refined head, creating the possibility of different interpretations of the connection of these people, apparently experiencing a turning point in their history, combining their delicious mountain love.
