G20 FILM FESTIVAL. Precious Ivie/Ivie wie Ivie (Germany/German with Eng. subs/2021/109 mins). Dir. Sarah Blaßkiewitz. The Afro-German Ivie, called 'Schoko' by her friends, lives with her best friend Anne in Leipzig and works temporarily in the solarium of her ex-boyfriend Ingo, while she is still looking for a permanent job as a teacher. Suddenly, her Berlin half-sister Naomi - unknown to her until then - appears at her door and confronts her with the death of their father and his upcoming funeral in Senegal. As the sisters slowly get to know each other, Ivie increasingly questions not only her nickname but also her self-image. Collab. Embassy of Germany.
