That is mean, Laura did not leave the cellar door open at all! But when the caretaker “stinky feet” claims that, Mum scolds Laura instead of defending her. That is the limit. After all, Laura is already six and is now going out into the world in search of happiness. In contrast to her single parent household of two, happiness has to be a big, happy family, as in the commercial for “Pizzafamosa”. So Laura sets out on her bike. But, where to? On a tour of her Berlin apartment building, Laura visits all sorts of families and bizarre loners. She gets to know something new with the neighbours, but will she really find a family that has everything? Or will the plan of Justin, the boy next door, work to assemble the ideal blended family himself? Her Mum is hot on her heels, and yet she gets to hear at every door: “Laura is not here. But she was here...”
An adventurous journey through the world and time through a Berlin apartment building. With pizza, lots of neighbours and music. In addition, “Laura was here” takes a look at how diverse human coexistence can look today.
