Ulrike Maria Hund

A 16-year-old Russian-German girl had to relocate with her parents, who want to build a better life for themselves. She doesn't feel comfortable in her new surroundings, and on top of that, she has feelings for her boyfriend from Russia, who is increasingly losing his footing in Germany. At the same time, she feels attracted to a Moroccan boy who lives next door and embodies a foreign world.

In a German town, teacher Irene leads an inconspicuous, boring, lonely life. One day, a man rings at her door and slips in. It's an armed convict from the prison next door, escaped with a leg wound. He now makes her a prisoner in her own home. Almost without a word, as if she secretly enjoys the excitement or just mesmerized, she obeys Vassily, every single command, even sexual services, submissively or after a symbolic struggle. Somehow that seems to change, but can force initiate love?
