Holle is a spiritual healer who has to cope with her parents' ageing and her brother's schizophrenia. Torn between the need to remain mentally healthy and the urgent desire to help her family, Holle struggles to keep her head above water when she no longer belongs to herself.
“In my parents’ house is a film that speaks to everyone who knows the feeling helplessness in families that deal with a family member in need of help and care. It is about our will to help and our inability to do so sometimes. Without giving a simplified solution, I want to give attention to complex problems and enable a platform for people to talk about it. For me cinema is all about that: Sitting in a dark room with strangers, realizing that the person on the screen is a lot like oneself and feeling less alone because of it.”
