Jack (Ivo Pietzcker) is ten years old and still new to the children’s home. It’s summer. Anticipation is mounting, but on the last day of school, his mother Sanna (Luise Heyer) fails to pick him up. After a quarrel at the home, Jack runs away. He makes his way to where his mother and younger brother Manuel (Georg Arms) lived, but nobody is there. After Jack finds and picks up Manuel at a friend’s place, they search for their mother together, roaming the city for several days…
JACK is about the journey of a young boy who’s forced to learn responsibility at a very young age.
