About film
Out in the retirement home garden, Hans is enjoying the last rays of sunshine with his son, Peter. Hans is happy and would be able to meet the approaching eve of his life with contentment if it weren’t for one old matter that he’d much rather forget.
The Human Principle is a film about morality and its absence, and it raises the question of what is it that makes us human.
