'Annaluise and Anton' ('Pünktchen und Anton') (1999)
Director: Caroline Link
Starring: Elea Geissler, Max Felder, Juliane Köhler, August Zirner, Meret Becker and Sylvie Testud
Annaluise and Anton are the closest of friends. Being the daughter of a wealthy surgeon, young Annaluise lives in a great house. Her mother, who always travels the world, more for public relation reasons than for the social tasks she pretends to fulfill, is never available to her as a mother. Anton, son of a single and sick mother in financial trouble, does his best to help her out of it by working late.
Annaluise decides to help her only friend (as nobody else would anyway) and starts singing in public places. Trouble arises when Anton can’t resist stealing a golden lighter and Annaluise’s secret life is discovered by her parents. Two troubled families can finally see the need for actions to be taken.
