Für immer im Herzen

Julia Berger runs a thriving publishing house with little time left for anything outside her demanding job. Her single minded pursuit strains her relationship with Fred, a lawyer, and creates distance from her family. Then Stefan, her beloved ten year old nephew who feels like a son, is struck by cancer. The crisis is compounded by the fact that his mother is in a mental hospital, leaving Julia to shoulder a heavier burden than she ever anticipated. Faced with a stark choice between supporting Stefan and preserving her career at a critical moment, she confronts questions about loyalty, responsibility, and what really matters when pressure mounts. The film follows her attempts to reconcile duty and affection without revealing the outcome.

Directed by Miguel Alexandre, Für immer im Herzen is a German drama led by Natalia Wörner as Julia Berger with Julia Jäger, Hanns Zischler and Hannes Jaenicke. The project emphasizes intimate character study rather than action.

It explores loyalty, sacrifice, and the emotional cost of balancing professional success with family obligations, offering a humane look at difficult moral choices. The overall tone favors quiet realism over sensational moments.
