Come join us for our Friday Film Fest for a viewing of Ein ganzes Leben! This movie follows the life of orphan Andreas Egger from a young age until his death in his 80s. It takes place at the turn of the 20th century in a remote, impoverished valley of the Austrian Alps. When Egger loses his parents, his uncle reluctantly accepts him on his farm but treats with disdain and frequent, brutal physical beatings. Despite all of this, Egger grows up to become a strong and honest man who finds a job when the first Alpine ski lift is being constructed under extremely dangerous conditions. In a local restaurant, he finds the love of his life, the waitress Marie, and the two enjoy moments of joy and marital happiness until tragedy tests his character like never before.German with English Subtitles
