Louise Wimmer

Louise Wimmer goes from one small job to another. Despite her loud speech and tall height she‘d rather stay alone to avoid any conflict. Her past life is now far behind her and everything she owns is in her car. At the dawn of her fifties, she lost everything when separating from her husband, but she wants to make it by herself. Nonetheless it is only if she accepts to open herself to others that she will be able to start her life again. A new feature film project is already in pre-production: Insight.
