Storyline

The Corona pandemic is in full swing. Now, of all times, BEN (Jörg Pauly) is kicked out of his home. But he can sleep on the sofa with his best buddy TIMMO (Thomas Bartling). TIMMO, however, is stuck in Dubai. All flights canceled. What BEN does not know yet: There is a new woman in TIMMO's life, SARA (Farina Violetta Giesmann). She also lives in TIMMOS apartment. The idea to spend the Corona Lockdown with the girlfriend of his best friend alone in the apartment is not comfortable for BEN, especially since SARA embarrasses him with her open-hearted nature again and again and it soon crackles violently...
