German original
Nina and Paul's marriage is over, they are just waiting for an opportunity to teach it their son Tim. During a chance encounter, Nina flirts with Viktor, her son's hockey coach, and goes with him to his house. A decision with serious consequences because Nina is nearly raped, defends herself and kills Viktor in the process. Paul followed the two and witnesses the misfortune, what makes a self-defense situation implausible for others. Agitated, the two drive home without notifying the police. While the investigations begin in the background and there is hardly any other topic in the circle of acquaintances of the other hockey parents, Nina and Paul have to stick together and assort new. Through the confrontation with the events and the solidarity as a "couple of crime" they find each other again in the course of the story. But can they also live with this guilt?
