Storyline
A new city, a new house – it could be a happy moment in a family’s life. Nina, a doctor, has taken a few days of vacation. House-husband Frieder is laying tile. Their daughter Charlotte plays in her new room. But Nina feels alienated in the half-empty rooms and decides to drive away – without letting her family know. She visits her brother in their parents’ vacation home, moves aimlessly through a surreal mountain landscape, and fi nds herself with an aging tennis star in a sports hotel, a concrete UFO from another era. Nina’s attempt to break out does not lead to an existential revolt, but to a fleeting encounter between two people who no longer feel at home in their worlds. Like a somnambulist, she returns, step by step, to her family.
