Synopsis:

***WARNING***Multi-language audio with English subtitles***Simon, a young German doctor, who is living and working in Marseille, doesn't give any news. His apartment is empty. Valerie, his mother, is desperate to find him and travels to France. She asks Jens, the former boyfriend of Simon, to help her out on this research. But one trace after another dissolves into thin air. Is Simon just travelling or does he not want to be disturbed? In his college Camille and the young car salesman Jalil Valerie finally finds two people, who both in their specific ways have an extraordinary relationship with Simon, which they deny in the beginning. For Valerie and Jens the trip develops into a more and more personal conflict. Who is Simon really and who knows him better?

Middle-aged mother Valerie (Harfouch) has not been able to get in touch with her son Simon, who is a doctor in Marseille, for some weeks, and asks his ex-lover Jens to fly over from Berlin to help her look for him. As the pair talk to police, visit the clinic where he worked and view videos that they find in Simon's apartment, it becomes clear that they don't really know Simon. She is still trying to adjust to her son's gay lifestyle, while Jens is bemused - and confused - to find that Simon had been having a relationship with Camille (Leroy) who also worked at the clinic.

Simon, a young German doctor, who is living and working in Marseille, doesn't give any news. His appartment is empty. Valérie, his mother, is desperate. She doesn't understand the reason of his disappearance. Therefore she asks Jens, the former boyfriend of Simon, to come to Marseille and help her out on this research.
