Imagine you left your home to move far away. You got carried away by a wind of change and became untrue to yourself. You reinvented yourself and felt free. All of a sudden though, pressure arises within you; at first a slight longing which soon becomes a gaping hole. The feeling is distinct, almost tangible, however, you cannot describe it. Words fail you. You return to where everything began, your home, yet the terrible void remains and you begin to wonder: was it always part of me?

Synopsis
Noa has been living in Berlin for 8 years now. She is about to graduate from universtiy and recently moved in with her German boyfriend Jörg. Although everything should be running smoothly, she suddenly experiences a personal crisis. Noa's life is in discord; she feels misunderstood and isolated, in fact, she can hardly recognise herself anymore.
As Noa's master thesis, a dictionary for non-translatable words, is deemed inadequate by her professor and Jörg goes on tour with his orchestra, Noa decides to take a break and spontaneously flies back to Israel. Just a short holiday in her homeland. Sun, food, family, speaking her own language... it's all doing her a lot of good. Suddenly Noa's grandmother is hospitalized which is the perfect excuse to extend her stay, thus suppressing the problems which await her in Berlin.
But everyday life hunts her down in Israel faster than she could ever have imagined. Old resurface and new ones appear. The pressure she felt in Berlin comes to a boil, as her grandmother's condition rapidly deteriorates. Ironically she feels just as misunderstood in her homeland as she already felt in Berlin. Of all days, on Israeli National Memorial Day, Jörg has to show up, thus bringing Noa's two carefully separated worlds into collision. Even Jörg begins to doubt that they still have a chance at a future together. Will Noa somehow be able to find herself amidst this chaos?
ANDERSWO tells of Noa's search for her place in life in a touching manner which combines drama and comedy. The movie is driven by its devotion to the protagonists and it casually moves the audience to contemplate universal themes such as homeland, love, language and belonging.

Neta Riskin / Noa Guttermann
Photo by Sebastian Marggraf
Neta Riskin counts among Israel’s most promising new actors, commanding our attention as “Noa Guttermann”in this feature. Her excellent acting skills translate well to the silver screen – and transport the film’s story to great effect. Incidentally, her private life reveals parallels to Noa’s story: Neta herself lived in Berlin for many years, yet – unlike Noa – left her German fiancée to return to her native Israel. A place that does not quite feel like home anymore.

Beyond extended stints at the theatre – a. o. at Munich’s Akademietheater, Metropoltheater and Theater Halle 7 as well as the Braunschweig Staatstheater – the actor enjoys a strong film and TV presence. In 2011, the Berlin-based actor took on the leading role of “Kasimir” in the modern adaptation of Ödon von Horváths’ “Kasimir und Karoline” (ARTE), a performance honoured with the German Film New Talent Development Award. The same year, Golo Euler accepted an ongoing starring role in ARD’s pre-primetime series “Heiter bis tödlich in Bürdringhausen” alongside Rike Schmid and Martin Lindow. Further films featuring the actor include “Zur Sache Marie” and the sequel to the popular two-parter “Der Doc und die Hexe” with Christiane Paul (SAT 1).

Hana Laslo / Rachel
Photo by Noa Magger
An Israeli (stand-up) comedian and actress, Hana Laszlo is one of the best-known performers in her native country. In 2005, Amos Gitai entrusted her with one of “Free Zone”’s female leads, a drama set against the backdrop of the Middle Eastern conflict. Her performance of the hands-on Israeli taxi driver Hanna Ben Moshe, who makes her way to the title’s free trade zone near the Jordanian border alongside a young US citizen (Natalie Portman) and a Palestinian (Hiam Abbass), won Laszlo the Best Actress Award at the 58th Cannes Film Festival – despite stiff competition from established performers like Charlotte Rampling (Lemming) or Maria Bello (A History of Violence). The role of Noa’s mother “Rachel” was written especially for Hana Laszlo. Her unbridled energy, unique sense of humour and remarkable sensitivity make her the perfect match for this character. As does her biography: Hana’s native tongue is Yiddish.

University of Film and Television "Konrad Wolf"
Founded in 1954, the University of Film and Television “Konrad Wolf” (HFF) is not only Germany’s oldest, but also its largest and one of the country’s most modern film schools. Situated right in the heart of Babelsberg’s Media City and just a few steps away from the local film studios, the university offers a solid and thorough education in film, TV and new media via its twelve degree programmes. HFF’s institutionalised collaborative approach, manifested in countless of projects, complements the specialised trades and training – and sets it apart from other film academies. Here, the art of film-making continues to evolve thanks to on-going collective experimentation as well as traditional research and development in order to play a decisive part in shaping the future of moving image media, from technology to production. Every year, students complete around 170 (film-based) projects at the HFF. The university’s work graces more than 300 festivals in over 50 countries and wins numerous awards.
