Description Vienna. Two actress sisters prepare to welcome home their brother, a philosopher. A special lunch, with all his favourite dishes. Pity that the philosopher considers his true home to be the Steinhof Clinic: a mental institution. It turns out to be a devastating meal! A brilliant and savagely funny allegory of postwar Austria.
