About film
Karl is already elderly when he meets Margot in New York City, their adopted home. After establishing a bond through shared memories of art, music, and the stage and screen in their hometown of Berlin in the 1920s, their slowly budding romance is threatened when a well-meaning son tells Karl he has to leave New York to go live in a retirement home. Margot and Karl have not really had time to make their unacknowledged love official, and now it may be too late.
