Well, well. The "Kronenzeitung" newspaper took our film as an opportunity to write a wonderful story about Michael and Christine Appelt, our two main protagonists. Many thanks to Martina Prewein!

Susanne Sonntag from ORF Upper Austria conducted an interview with director Reiner Riedler.
Huge thank you to ORF for the wonderful coverage of the Diagonale!
The Austrian premiere at the Diagonale 2024 in Graz was fantastic. We were able to present our film to the public for the first time in the sold-out Schubertkino cinema. Everyone was there. The reactions were overwhelming. Thank you all for being there. Thanks to the team and the organisers!

Michael and Christine Appelt on the "Jet Lag All Stars Radio Show"
Live on 1 April 2024, 22:05
"The Good Years" is a documentary film by Reiner Riedler about the extraordinary relationship between a man and his mother, who has been diagnosed with the onset of dementia. The film shows the life of photographer Michael Appelt. In his early 50s, he moves back into his childhood bedroom to support his mother, who lives alone, in her everyday life. A film of the tender, understanding rapprochement between mother and son. A relationship develops between the two, which becomes a life partnership and harbours a new, powerful force," says Reiner Riedler about his first documentary film.
In a central part of the film, Appelt can be seen talking about these experiences and his severe depression in a "Jet Lag All Stars Radio Show". Now, to mark the imminent premiere of "The Good Years" at the Diagonale, we have once again invited Appelt into the studio - this time together with his mother Christl. A radio experiment: without a presenter, the two sit opposite each other in the studio of the "Jet Lag All Stars Radio Show". Christl Appelt's favourite music provides the starting point for memories and reflections.
