Three films on one day - “Das Suchen und Finden der Liebe”, “Der Fischer und seine Frau” and “Kein Lieder über Liebe” - emphasise the struggle to construct a life and love in adverse conditions. The challenge to free oneself from the negative modelling of a previous generation who are trapped in their self-centred needs, leeching onto others while neglecting their parenting roles. The model of the 1950s  has now returned to domination, to have children and hope others will look after them, then return to the children for emotional and existential support when all else fails. The films show how the failed lives of others becomes a burden on the next generation when they are seeking to create new relationships for themselves and free themselves from the failures of the past.

The additional factor of finding and maintaining love despite yourself is also explored showing a range of alternatives.

These films are high quality explorations of relationships – a genre rarely seen in Australian acquisitive culture.
