And of course there’s between a minute bluish Mikoskop recordings. A seed swarm buzzes around a pipette sucks fertilized eggs, plus the usual string music. The cinematic standard program, when it comes to difficult pregnancies.
Even otherwise the ZDF film “Ella’s decision” acts, which runs on Monday on ZDF, a bit of a hybrid of Biounterricht and Herzschmerzschmonzette. The seeds swarm and the ova in any case submitted by Ella and Marcus Herlinger (Petra Schmidt-Schaller and Christian Erdmann). Hormone therapy, “pre-in-plan-ta-ti-di-a-diagnostics”, as the doctor spelled it time for the audience, everything is already checked off.The couple has even received a 10,000-euro loan to the Erbwiese. All this because they could pass on a genetic defect: for Duchenne, a disease in which the muscles degrade – the children usually die from it before they are no longer children. And just as one does not want the couple. You have the “what if” situation always remember. Because Ella’s sister Johanna (Anna Schudt) has a twelve-year-old who suffers from this genetic disease and is in a wheelchair
Missed Opportunity
So the story (book: Kristin Derfler) is told as a sister quarrel: It’s about heritage – the gene defect as in money. One has a farm and a terminally ill child, the other wants a healthy, but not plowed in the courtyard off but is a teacher. That parallel also the precarious farm one against rumkrebsende by marriage Baker family the other is played, acts very constructed.
Okay, the word “ethics committee” fall times, the rest remains weak. Drop height? Ethical rings? Existential trenches? Nix of nowhere. The most dramatic rate falls, as Ellas man mosert, the credit would be yes can really use much earlier, and she says: “.. We’re talking about a child and does not have a ventilation system” The rest of the dialogues languishes at the level of: “You have toiled long enough, Mother.” And the strings increase the Crescendo
short. “Ellas decision” is a missed opportunity. This is all the more apparent, since there are currently other films, unravel the ethical considerations around childbearing: Since this is at the Berlinale celebrated trisomy drama “24 weeks” of Anne Zohra Berrached which starts in September in the cinema, and the recently sent ARD strip “Only a handful of life” in which demonstrated a touching Annette Frier every minute, how hard is this struggle for the right decision.
Comparing “Ellas decision” with the usual other family films that are made on weekdays, he is indeed in the category “Can you look”. But it is a pity, just because you know what, it is always an enrichment, when the wonderful actresses Petra Schmidt-Schaller and Anna Studt get the chance really aufzuspielen – excluding both the ZDF film would probably really just a piece of dead wood. And also because Brigitte Bertele directed whose gorgeous adaptation of non-really-love story “Grenzgang” with Lars Eidinger and Claudia Michelsen was rightly awarded the Grimme Prize.
Just in comparison, affects ” Ellas decision “as designed on the drawing board.
