The year the snow won’t fall in December, Madonna will bear her third child and an asteroid named “Apophis” will get horribly close to earth, still flying by and giving the humankind another chance. One day early spring two young women will meet each other in Berlin, the capital of Germany to spend the evening together and on the next day in a shopping centre packed with people called “Alexa” to blow themselves up with explosives attached to their bodies and thus commit the biggest terrorist act that Germany has seen so far – the last evening is the film.
