48 hours in the life of the Neugebauer family. The May weekend with a small family celebration, which was planned as peaceful and contemplative, turns out to be a kind of Rocky Horror Picture Show in Vienna's municipal housing estate. Just like the other residents, the Neugebauers are preparing for the impending Mother's Day.

VIBE

A chaotic, darkly comedic dive into familial dysfunction. Expect bizarre situations and a sense of unease, all wrapped in a uniquely Austrian, schlocky aesthetic. It's a wild ride that revels in the absurd.
