Directed by
Georgia Stahl
Starring
Fanny Krausz, Hanna von Gutzeit, Gabriel Raab
Overview
Jana and Kristin have just completed their acting studies. They don't like each other but they have to travel together to an audition at a theatre in Munich. During the short journey, things don't go exactly as planned. Thrown into the real world, they both realize they're in the same boat and rediscover each other. They become friends- maybe even more - and right at that moment, they are separated from each other.
