"SCHWESTERN" is the story of a few days in the life of three sisters. Linda is suffering from a heart disease since birth and is regularly subjected to intense operations. It is highly unusual that she has reached the age she’s at. Had this strong woman not been stopped by her frail body all of her life, she surely would have chosen a different path of life than the one behind her.
This will be a film that will be told with lightness, humour and beauty in spite of the sadness brought upon by the certainty of the approaching farewell. Although Linda’s disease has influenced all of their lives strongly, it is still the story of three sisters who escape their everyday lives in order to open up to one another completely.

This will be a film told through lightness, beauty and humour in spite of the sadness and the reality that the sisters will eventually have to say farewell to Linda. Although Linda’s disease has influenced the women’s lives strongly, it is first and foremost the story of three sisters who escape everyday life for a few days to really be with one another.
