In the quiet, snow-dusted landscape of a rural Austrian winter, a young man’s life is irrevocably altered by a single, tragic event. Directed by Rafael Haider, "Carry On" is a poignant drama that follows the journey of a man, portrayed by Karl Fischer, who is suddenly tasked with the immense responsibility of caring for his younger sister after a family disaster. As he navigates his own grief and confusion, he finds an unexpected and reluctant ally in a resilient social worker, played by Ingrid Burkhard, whose own guarded nature slowly begins to thaw. Their evolving relationship, set against a backdrop of bureaucratic hurdles and personal isolation, becomes the fragile core of a story about the weight of inheritance and the tentative steps toward forging a new family. With a restrained, atmospheric tone that captures the chill of both the environment and the characters' emotional states, the film explores the silent burdens we carry and the quiet connections that make them bearable.
