Synopsis:

***ATTENTION***Original language audio with English & German subtitles***Fifteen-year-old ADELE wants to die. She's felt alienated by everything around her since the death of her brother. All that remains in her dull, hard-working life is profound sadness. TIMO (43) is on the run. Eight years ago he had been found guilty of murder and jailed. Now he has finally managed to break out of prison. Injured and exhausted, he tries to hide on Adele's parents' farm.When Adele discovers the escapee, she makes him a frank and eerie offer: she will help him to flee, but once they are in safety, Timo is to kill her. Timo is forced by his circumstances to accept this morbid pact.Suspicion and distrust accompany them on a journey that leads them all the way to Marseille. The boundary between perpetrator and victim fades. The frail Timo can barely stand to be close to this girl; Adele reminds him of his dark duties. The more difficult circumstances become, the more this peculiar couple has to trust each other and eventually both find their way back into life.

Adele (Maria-Victoria Dragus) is a lonely, depressed teenager living on a bleak farm with her cold and unloving parents after her brother's death. One night, escaped killer Timo (Roeland Wiesnekker) winds up in her room and pleads with her to help get him out of town safely. Adele agrees to do it, but only on one condition: he has to kill her after he's safe from the law, thus freeing her from her hellish life. She tells Timo she's tried to do it herself, but just couldn't manage. As they escape through the German countryside, he's not exactly at ease with her at first, but she's finding his company much more comforting than that of her parents.

Since her brother's death, 15-year-old Adele feels stifled by her sad and lonely life on a remote farm with her parents in the German country side. When she meets murderer-on-the-run Timo, she agrees to help him escape to Marseilles if he promises to release her from her painful life by killing her.
