Stefan
Sascha trabaja hace varios años en “Queens”, uno de los muchos burdeles legales de Berlín. Maria es la chica nueva, independiente, inconformista y queer. Sascha se siente inmediatamente atraída por esa alteridad. Maria, a su vez, está fascinada por la absoluta calma con la que Sascha enfrenta la vida. En un ámbito en el que la feminidad se considera una mercancía, ellas experimentan juntas un único momento en el que la felicidad parece posible. Pero la relación comienza a desmoronarse debido a los miedos a mostrarse mutuamente su verdadero yo y a enfrentar sus propios abismos.

First Aggressive Nurse
A bookshop renowned for its rare works is mysteriously and completely filled with copies of a book entitled 1, which doesn't appear to have a publisher or author. The strange almanac describes what happens to the whole of humanity in the space of a minute. A police investigation begins and the bookshop staff are placed in solitary confinement by the Bureau for Paranormal Research (RDI Reality Defense Institute). As the investigation progresses, the situation becomes more complex and the book increasingly well known, raising numerous controversies (political, scientific, religious and artistic). Plagued by doubts, the protagonist has to face facts: reality only exists in the imagination of individuals.
