After the death of her husband, former skier Andrea is confronted with many problems. The relationship with her parents and her daughter Sara has always been tense, and she has to cope with the loss of her partner alone. Traumatized and plagued by fears, she tries to cope with her everyday life. In the wake of the #MeToo wave, Andrea decides to give an interview about her time as a young professional skier. In this very personal interview, she records the monstrous power structures of the home management at the time and how the abuse between colleagues and coaches continued. In doing so, she unleashes a media avalanche to which her family also reacts with rejection. However, more and more people support the allegations. A story of liberation based on true events. A film about a remarkable woman. Persona Non Grata.

Anastasia (13) and Diana (9) are two sisters living in a Latvian orphanage. When they discover that an American family wants to adopt them, Diana cannot wait to move to the States, while Anastasia is less excited about the prospect of leaving her home and her adult sister, Yulia, and her baby, Lily. When she finds out that their estranged biological mother, Alla, has been released from prison, Anastasia does everything she can to establish a relationship with her, but Alla can hardly take care of herself, let alone her children. Anastasia has to make a crucial decision – to either leave her mother and Yulia behind by moving to America or to remain in Latvia in the hope of one day living with her mother. Anastasia’s decision is made even more difficult when she learns that her sister’s fate also lies in her hands, because the law states that two siblings cannot be split up.
