A black comedy set in the fictional village of Gottlingen, which one day receives some very special new residents: nine men and women from an American sect settle in the remote community. When the sect members die in an accident, they leave behind a lot of money. The villagers seize the opportunity to pocket the money and cover up the traces of the accident. When other cult members from America announce their visit, the local council tries to cover up the whole affair. However, this deception triggers a chain reaction with dramatic consequences for the residents of Gottlingen.

After the death of their parents, Frank and his little sister Anna return from the US to their former home, a small Swiss town. However, the close-knit social circles in St. Gallen provide the perfect breeding ground for a fateful series of events that not only lead the two siblings to a decisive point in their lives... The story explores the inscrutable ways of chance and deals intensively with problems faced by modern youth, such as aimlessness, love, alcohol, and drug use.
