Martina Gedeck of The Lives of Others and Mostly Martha fame stars in this powerful drama by director Stefan Krohmer.
Set in the beautiful scenery around the Schlei, an inlet of the Baltic Sea, a liberal, open-minded couple, Miriam (Gedeck) and Andre (Peter Davor), are spending their vacation. Their teenage son and his girlfriend soon join them. When the coquettish young girlfriend, Livia, starts spending time alone with an older man, Miriam is concerned. She soon finds herself, however, entangled in a highly provocative love triangle that has tragic consequences.
Full of uncertainty and tension, this romantic thriller raises questions about moral conceptions and explores the delicate balance of emotions and power in personal relationships.
