Plot Summary

The brightest comet in 400 years is racing across Europe's firmament - and amateur astronomer Kranich has discovered it. "Comets" is his story - and that of a few other people in a small town somewhere in Europe: a lonely teenage girl who puts her young life in danger on her birthday... Her father, whose fear of unemployment triggers a drastic reaction... An elderly gentleman with Alzheimer's who courts the same elegant lady every day.
