SYNOPSIS:

A small town in Eastern Germany. Three young men, all of them outsiders, become friends: Richy, who is teased at school, Tim, who has moved from the west with his parents and has difficulties getting used to his new life, and Marco, who has problems coping with his parents' separation and the rejection he experiences from his father. Together, the trio undergo a stormy and climactic period. They are convinced of their ability to influence their environment and their lives with newly gained „satanic powers“.
