Plot / Synopsis

A boy and a girl meet at a detention center for problematic youth. The boy has come to serve his obligatory civilian service. The girl is constantly in trouble, with a fire inside her and a lust for life that can’t be quashed or controlled. The boy becomes infatuated with the girl. He is a quiet one, but there is a fire inside him as well. Rules, laws, punishment: the shackles can be broken. One day they steal a car and run away together. Thus begins one long escape, without end. ~ venice-days

“The film is a cinematic fairy tale. The main characters embark on a journey overland, through the woods and across the waters. Towards their childhood, towards their dreams and towards their selfhoods. Banal landscapes, hallucinations, and dreams during both day and night make up the worlds of the film. All the worlds are equally real.”
