Five young people in provincial Germany. They run into each other and away from each other. They kiss and they fight. It’s their last winter together before they leave school, after that it’s stay or go. A feature film debut of enormous intensity.

At 18, Leonie and Marlene are best friends, convinced that nothing in the world can tear them apart. But then Leonie falls in love with Naomi, and as she immerses herself in her first great love, she drifts further away from Marlene. However, Leonie increasingly finds the relationship with Naomi overwhelming, and only after their breakup does she realize how much she has isolated herself. She leaves Berlin and starts training as a gardener in Brandenburg, hoping to sort out her feelings and the world around her. But the past years have left their mark on everyone.

Zoe, Tomke, and Bruno do not know everything, but they want to discover as much as they can. What they mean for each other and what they mean to themselves, how it feels to stand alone against the world or to trek through the night.
