Content of the movie "So much time" Toggle

Content: Admittedly, Rainer’s(Jan Josef Liefers) life is not quite what he dreamed of. His job bores him, his wife has left him and his son would have liked a better dad. And Rainer also has a skeleton in his closet. He ruined the breakthrough of his band “Bochums Steine” on stage 30 years ago. His bandmates Bulle(Armin Rohde), Konni(Matthias Bundschuh), Thomas(Richy Müller) and especially Ole(Jürgen Vogel) have never forgiven him. As if that wasn’t enough, his doctor tells him that he doesn’t have long to live. End of the announcement? Not for Rainer! He decides to give it his all once again and takes off. He now wants to do one thing in his life right: The comeback of “Bochums Steine”! But how will his old bandmates react to the proposal? Can Rainer convince them that it’s never too late to live his dream? He has nothing left to lose and suddenly life is on Rainer’s side again…
