On her way to go shopping in nearby Poland, Sylvia abandons her two rebellious stepchildren, Lea (8) and Konstantin (7), on a country road. Upon her return, Sylvia cannot bring herself to tell her husband, the children's father, the truth about her absence. The children meet a Polish man who supplies restaurants with toiletries and promises to take them home.

Since his wife died two years ago, Edgar has been alone. His life has been left without purpose. One day, he leaves his house, determined to find a job. But the saleswoman in the store is not interested. On his way out, Edgar, lost in thought, picks up an umbrella. The store detective detains him. Suddenly, Edgar has his chance.

An intellectual burlesque, this is a love story taking place in Berlin, of two young video-artists who fail to 'live in the moment'.
