Synopsis

Mike is 20 years old, attractive, intelligent and a loner. He lives in a poor neighborhood in Rostock, a town in the Eastern part of Germany (former GDR). His only friend is Dustin. They usually sit on the roof, overlook the ocean, smoke joints and assort their stolen goods. Mike does not think further than one day ahead. Things change when he gets caught breaking into a building by a man named Konrad Böhm. Konrad introduces him into the world of former Stasi people who still feed on their contacts, exercising corruption within the changed political system. Mike is impressed. Konrad is also the first person who tells him stories about his dad, who had died when he was a child. His mother used to remain quiet about him, wanting to protect her son, not knowing that she would achieve the opposite with her behavior. When Mike realizes that his father's tragical death 20 years ago was no accident, it is almost too late for him.
