The second part of the “Films of Europe” cycle depicts Dieutre setting off with his godson Itvan on a long, enjoyable journey, crossing snowbound Germany by car. As the man drives the boy through cities and countryside, via Tübingen, Dresden, Weimar, and Berlin, they visit numerous friends and landmarks, he rediscovers the past. As the pair grows closer as friends, Dieutre also takes on a paternalistic relationship with the boy as he details his own journey of self discovery. All accompanied by the music of Winterreise that Schubert composed.
