UMZUG!

SYNOPSIS

A new job, a new love, a new family member—there are a thousand reasons to move. But moving almost always means a major upheaval in one’s life. The documentary series UMZUG! follows people candidly and on an equal footing as they leave the familiar behind and embark on something new.

With her high school graduation just around the corner, Naomi finally wants to take control of her own life and move out of her mother’s house. Roman, a 23-year-old college student, is about to become a father and must convince not only himself but also those around him that he’s up to the task of his new role. Sorsha was dumped by her boyfriend a few weeks ago. Still reeling from the pain of the breakup, she wants to get out of their shared apartment as soon as possible and make a fresh start.

Dominik, 26, is trying for the fourth time to move out of his parents’ house—and finally prove that he can truly stand on his own two feet. Boris and Lena spent over a year travelling through Europe with their daughters in a small camper van. Now they’re returning and have to make a home for themselves again in the big city.

And Tobias, Emanuel, Daniel, and Franz from the band The Mustard Tubes are leaving the tranquil Chiemgau region together and moving to Würzburg. That’s where they hope to finally make their big breakthrough.
