In a not-too-distant future, integration serves to protect the elite and isolate the weak, the cities are hellholes and the countryside holds the fairytale promise of a better life. During the annual graduates’ assessment camp a young school girl is found in the woods. Known for his upstanding morals, a teacher breaks with his own values on a quest for the truth – and is increasingly entangled in a net of his own lies. Suddenly someone confesses to a murder that they couldn‘t have committed, and the fragile cohesion of a youthful elite society is threatened to destroy itself. With his exceptional performance the actor Jannis Niewöhner was awarded Best Young Actor in the 2017 Bavarian Film Awards.
