Heimweg

After a long day juggling work, social obligations, and internal pressures, a young woman confronts the quiet collapse of a life she no longer wants. Navigating an isolating routine of underpaid labor, academic disillusionment, and emotional fatigue, she finally opens up during a late-night call with her mother. As the city sleeps, she makes a quiet but radical decision to reclaim her life—by simply not going home. Heimweg is a subtle, intimate portrait of burnout, identity, and the courage to change course.
