Synopsis:

40-year-old author Hans Schiller suddenly enjoys unexpected success, which he wants to celebrate with Helene and Tom, his best friends from college days. The three of them were very close in their love for freedom and their bohemian lifestyles, all of them completely devoid of any success. But now they are confronted with Hans and his Porsche, his young girlfriend and his house in the country. It is supposed to be a pleasant day out for the 'lucky people' and their new partners: the eccentric Helene turns up with a car polisher and boasts a house of her own in Uelzen, wannabe-actor Tom has Charlotte by his side, a bored art collector. Between them all stands Angela, Hans' latest conquest, a very young hairdresser. He plans to go steady with her, quit the bohemian way of life and become a family man. The highly organized party is soon thrown off the rails by old romantic entanglements and jealousies. This tragicomic intimate play full of surprises is the result of a three-day improvisation marathon with six camerapeople.
