German original
His mother's upcoming funeral prompts Simon, a modest twenty-something, to invite his friends whom he hasn't seen in years. During their school days, this clique was inseparable, but then life pushed them in different directions: Lena and Tim are trying to reconcile their jobs as architect and teacher with the big question of family planning, Lars is an unsuccessful and sarcastic actor, Max is a successful lawyer who is having his first relationship experience, and Hannah, Simon's great love from school days, is in the middle of preparing her wedding. Soon, old secrets and new challenges arise and the clique has to navigate a alcohol-fueled night and learn what it means to live.
