Fiction. A social comedy.

In the small and clean town of Freistadt, the newly elected mayor Birgit keeps order. That’s why she brings her little sister Julia, whom she considers chaotic and hopelessly crazy, back from Vienna. In the small town, under the care of theologian Lea, she is supposed to return to the fold of normality. But what Birgit doesn’t realize is that Lea has no intention of guiding her little sister back onto the right path, but wants something completely different from Julia.
