Synopsis
Moritz, a manic-depressive commercial director, jumped into a Berlin canal. While he is recovering in hospital, his sister, his ex-girlfriend and his current flame spend the night in his appartment from which they had planned to bring him his clothes. Waiting for news from the hospital they discuss topics such as AC/DC’s “Highway To Hell”, the nourishing effects of chicken eggs, cult commercials from the 1990s, the world’s dumbest suicide attempts, and the meaning of love.
