You left your home to move far away. You were struck by a wind of change and were unfaithful to yourself. You reinvented yourself and you are now feeling free. But suddenly pressure arises in you.

Georg, a professional improviser, wants the best for his epileptic child—and he finds it in a chic daycare center in Leipzig. He can't admit that he's unemployed and his wife works as a cleaning lady. With a doctored biography and rusty charm, he fakes his way into the hip parenthood scene as a supposed event manager, organizing flea markets, barbecuing, smoking weed, and taking over the cash register. The fact that there is almost half a million euros in it is initially a "gift" that Georg soon uses to treat himself to a lavish lifestyle without anyone noticing – and to become more and more like the hip parents. But as he juggles credit cards, his shady dealings increasingly begin to turn against him.
