Synopsis

A boy and a girl throw themselves into that great adventure known as being a couple. Nicole is 14 years old and filled with a presentiment that her life is about change. This premonition comes to pass when she meets Schoeppi, a boy the same age who is one of the neighbourhood heroes. Luckily, Nicole's mother is filling in for someone on the night shift and so her parent's apartment becomes the stage for a drama enacted by Nicole and Schoeppi as they attempt to play the roles of man and woman. Based on their adult role models, the two kids try to live out their fantasy of what love is. But it is not that easy.
