Career prospects with the riot police, offspring on the road, the semi-detached house pre-financed by the parents: Marc’s (Hanno Koffler) life is well set up. But then he meets his colleague Kay (Max Riemelt) during a training course. During running training Marc gets to know a new feeling of lightness – and what it’s like to develop feelings for a man.
Torn between the world he knows and the intoxication of the new experience, his life becomes increasingly out of control. In free fall Marc can no longer please anyone – neither his wife (Katharina Schüttler), nor his parents (Maren Kroymann, Louis Lamprecht) or Kay. Least of all himself.
