A Berlin taxi, four seasons of grief, and one woman's spiral through the windshield of memory.
On New Year’s Eve, in the streets of Berlin, Alex delivers coke driving her taxi. Three other car journeys capture three earlier moments in a life marked by personal tragedy. From season to season, an interior journey into states of being.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Kalinsky shot the four seasons in actual chronological order, allowing Bloching's physical transformation to mirror the character's unraveling in real time.
The taxi is a 1980s Mercedes W123—a deliberate choice as the 'last German taxi you can still fix yourself,' symbolizing Alex's broken but persistent machinery.
