synopsis

24 hours: One day ? one night. One fight. At Mark?s farewell party everything collides: aspirations, fears, desperation, sex, intoxication and reality. The film depicts a group of teenagers in a desolate American suburb striving for acknowledgment, love and security. Each day they have to struggle for their future in a world that doesn?t grant them a chance. In the course of the next 24 hours everything is going to change for some of them. An up-and-coming film by two-time German Film Prize nominee Holger Ernst.
