ROLAND REBER’S CABARET OF DEATH paints a multi-layered picture of existence and puts the taboo subject of death back in line into the circle of life. In various storylines a ruined relationship crosses paths with an old man begging for euthanasia, a live show featuring candidates who are mercilessly sacrificed to the audience, a dancer who cannot escape ageing despite her self-optimization and the one with the mask who craves to be famous at all costs.

Eight very different people meet one night and a bar and leave all restraints behind them, that society put on them...

Eve, a hotelier’s daughter, and Magdalena, a sociologist who works as the dominatrix “Lady Maria” in an S & M studio, meet coincidentally through a motorcycle accident. Fascinated by the bizarre world of Lady Maria, Eve begins to search for her own identity and sexuality and goes on an odyssey through the hidden locations of lust - dominatrix studio, swinger club, striptease bar – and meets other people torn between their desires: Dominik, who wants to empathize with the life and suffering of Jesus, and Mike, who pretends to be Eve's travel guide of desire and falls madly in love with her.

Christiane Raetsch (Mira Gittner) and Sandra Wolf (Marina Anna Eich) write a book about the “world of magic”. At an esoteric summer workshop, they meet three other women and decide to work together on the project, with each woman delving into a special area: shamanism, witchcraft, ritual magic, sexual magic, geomancy. They all try to influence reality through magical rituals and to handle their lives with esoteric practices. Christiane, the shaman, tries to find answers with psycho active drugs in the mist of other dimensions. Sandra, the witch, is searching for the man of her life, but the tarot cards always say “no” to the men she meets. A crazy comedy which spares no aspect of the “magical sciences”. A mean side blow to all hobby esoterics, who go to a workshop on the weekend and explain the world on the next day. But Magic always goes its own ways.

Sophie, una estudiante de Egiptología, y Christoph, un actor en paro, leen un anuncio en el periódico ofreciendo trabajo. "Alguien que cuide de mi casa durante seis semanas - buena paga". Los dos consiguen el trabajo sin saber nada el uno del otro. Entran en la casa y se encuentran allí. Las normas dictan que ambos pueden hacer lo que deseen en la casa excepto una sola cosa; hay una habitación en la que no se les permite entrar bajo ningún concepto y debe estar siempre cerrada. Pronto empiezan a pasar cosas muy extrañas...
