Images of the Absence 1998

"In 1991, I traveled from Buenos Aires to Germany to study film. Seven years later, I wanted to make this film: Images Of The Absence. The film tells the story of a family that never became one. My family. Images of the Absence is also a kind of diary of my journey from Germany to Buenos Aires to be able to understand the reasons for my parents' separation and for the long absence of my father. It is a film about love and the end of love, about growing old and death." - German Kral
