Joachim Meyerhoff reads from his autobiographical novel "You can also fall into the air"

After being thrown off course by a stroke in Vienna, Joachim Meyerhoff hopes to get back on his feet by making a fresh start in Berlin. But everything turns out differently than he expected. The new city is getting on his nerves and his artistic work as a writer and actor is getting more difficult every day.

At his young son's birthday party, an incident occurs that leaves no doubt that things cannot continue like this. The narrator leaves Berlin and moves to the country to live with his mother, who leads a very self-determined life on a beautiful property not far from the sea. Mother and son have always been very close, but these weeks together become a special time. The son joins in with his mother's daily routine, begins to write his theater novel and other stories, and gradually finds his way out of the anger and nervousness that have accompanied him his entire life.
