Son Tom (Lars Eidinger), a well-regarded conductor, is too preoccupied to give his ailing parents the attention they need. He’s juggling work – overseeing a new orchestral piece – and a confusing relationship with an ex who wants him to co-parent her newborn child. Meanwhile, daughter Ellen fumbles through life plagued by alcohol-induced blackouts and an affair with a married colleague.

Winner of Best Screenplay at the Berlin Film Festival and Best Film at the German Film Awards, Dying is a brilliant and sharply comic portrayal of a family slowly unraveling as they contend with the chaos life brings.
