Wunderschön

"Belleza" delves into the complex emotional and physical journeys of three women from the same family, each grappling with their own insecurities and challenges related to body image and relationships. Sonja, having undergone two pregnancies, finds herself confronting the profound changes in her body and the strain these create in her marriage with Milan. Her struggle highlights the often overlooked emotional toll of motherhood and self-acceptance.

Approaching her 60th birthday, Frauke experiences a similar sense of invisibility and disconnection within her own marriage. As she navigates the feelings of aging and diminished attention from her husband, her story sheds light on the societal pressures women face as they grow older, and the yearning to be seen and valued beyond physical appearance.

Meanwhile, their daughter Julie is ambitiously pursuing a career in modeling, yet repeatedly encounters setbacks due to imperfections in her physical appearance. Her narrative explores the relentless and unforgiving standards of beauty imposed by the industry, as well as the impact these standards have on young women striving for success. Together, these intertwined stories offer a poignant examination of beauty, identity, and the enduring quest for self-worth across generations.
