Das Geschenk

On 30 October, “Das Geschenk” premieres on Netflix – a biting yet heart-warming comedy about a child’s birthday party that gets out of hand. Marlene, a single mum, wants to throw the perfect party for her son Theo at her brother’s country house. But then issues surrounding parenting, gender roles and parental principles – as well as a rather dubious present – all come to a head.

Costume designer Petra Kray brings the characters to life with a keen sense of humour and personality: from the banker’s look to children’s birthday party outfits. Her costumes highlight the contrasts within the family.

Starring, amongst others, Jeanne Goursaud, Edin Hasanović, Heiner Lauterbach, Levin Wopp, Amal Keller and Sogol Faghani; Production: UFA Fiction; Director: Vanessa Jopp; Costume design: Petra Kray
