Germany, 2023, 90 min, from 10 years
After the break-up of his parents, ten-year-old Finn shuttles back and forth between his father Volkan in Neustrelitz and his mother in Berlin. It is pretty chaotic, especially as his father has his hands full at his new catering company. That is why the planned paddling trip has to be cancelled and Finn has to go back to his mother. But that‘s not all: Finn‘s backpack, including his mobile phone, money and ticket, is stolen. It could only have been the pushy man from his compartment but the train conductor does not believe Finn and hands him over to the police. On the drive to the station, the police car is hit by a Polish delivery van. While the police and driver are negotiating, twelve-year-old Jola suddenly appears in front of Finn. Jola is supposed to spend the holidays with her annoying grandmother in Poland. She does not feel like it at all, so she persuades Finn to go to the sea with her, but first the thief from the train has to be caught.
