Back for Good

Three women, one family: Monika the mother, Angie the older sister and Kiki the baby of the family. Angie is a reality-TV star who is doggedly clinging onto her fading career. Fresh out of rehab, she suddenly finds herself without any money, friends or a place to live and is condemned to returning to her mother in her hated dump of a hometown. Angie's teenage sister Kiki is also finding life tough-going. Due to her epilepsy, her mother Monika insists that she wears a freaky protective helmet. The consequence: Kiki is ostracised and bullied, her life has long since become the hell from which her mother is trying to protect her. As Angie takes up residence on the air mattress beside Kiki's bed, she appears to be the perfect adviser to help Kiki struggle out of her social isolation and the two grow closer. What at first appears to be a catastrophe actually becomes a chance for all three women to change. Back for Good is a bittersweet ode to humanity - quietly hummed whilst an auto-tuned pop song blares out of the radio.

This is on the list of one of my favorite movies.

I’m a big Kim Riedle fan. And this movie shocked me. He was absolutely brilliant ! From beginning to end I was captivated!

Without giving away too much, Kim Riedle just kills it. He is one class actor. The impressions his portrayal gives us is that he was born to play this role!

A Drama that I will be watching again and again!

Have seen this movie lots of times. Still love it!

Great movie kept me on the edge of my chair

Most compact, most mature and best done in very aspects, and perhaps it's the best movie from Stefanie Schmitz.

I enjoyed everything and every moment. Juliane Köhler again proves why he's one of the cinema's masters.

Not a Predictable script
