Graduation and then the film academy. This is the educational path that Antonia has to follow to get her dream job: She wants to become a film director. The only thing she would need for that is some order and structure in her life. But instead of supporting her, Antonia's mother Angi makes her life difficult. She doesn't think much of compulsory schooling or regular education. Her life is a tissue of lies which she adapts in order to impress her current lover. She makes it clear to her three daughters that nothing about the actual family situation must be revealed, because otherwise there is a danger that the youngest daughter, Pippa, will be taken away from them by youth welfare. Antonia feels responsible for everyone and tries not to let anything get out of control - until things get too much and she suddenly sees no way out for her own life.
