Brothers
2002, German. Directed by Wolfgang Murnberger.
Ernst Stadler is a successful, award-winning chef with his own gourmet restaurant. His older brother Ludwig is also a chef, but is currently in prison. Adrian, the youngest of the three, is a nurse and gay. When their mother dies, they travel together to the funeral in Saxony-Anhalt. There they find a clue about Wickerl's biological father. They track down Ernst's father in Hungary. He had once abandoned his pregnant mother. Adrian is not a brother in the biological sense; he was adopted by his mother as a foundling. Nevertheless, they come to the conclusion: "And the three of us are still brothers."
