Plot Summary

The film revolves around two characters: a high school student who is intelligent, beautiful, and fulfills all the expectations placed on her by her school, her parents, and society—and a young unskilled worker, a loser, whom she is supposed to take care of and reform. Such sponsorships were commonplace in the GDR and form the basis for a multi-layered, ironic, and profoundly told encounter that deals with conformity and rebellion, social background, and outsiders.
