But mostly they are on the move anyway, on the street, in shopping arcades, at the train station - without a destination and without illusions. Then Julia joins them, 15 years old, who has run away from home - a princess, as one of the clique says. Hagen falls in love with her. A fairy tale begins, and the next moment it is already over.
