This critically-acclaimed TV movie focuses on a Bavarian countrywoman and her desire to die with dignity. Maria Stadler knows that she will die soon from cancer, but the stubborn old lady doesn't want to spend her last days in a hospital. Her doctor cannot keep her from returning home, so he sends his best nurse, Andrea. Maria gets angry when Andrea tries to rule her life, but the conflict between her sons also weighs heavily upon her mind.
