Turn on the TV, pull out your cell phone, open up a newspaper
Everywhere it says the same thing: forest fires, floods, world hunger, capitalism, the end. Of everything. Turn off the TV, put away your cell phone, crumple up the newspaper. Surround yourself with beauty: your passion, your family, your friends. Distract yourself. Just like Alwa, Emil, Karl and Ivan. The four friends go on nature trips, break into other people's cabins, drink too much wine and are always on the go. It should always go on. Further straight ahead. Deeper into the forest, across the fields and to the mountains.
But one morning the unexpected happens: Emil has disappeared. No one can explain it, everyone tries to understand. The disappearance intensifies Ivan's fear of loss, confronts Karl with his insensitivity and Alwa with her dependence on the group. The order of the world seems to be out of balance as one by one the group dissolves and never returns. There is no good and no evil, no right and no wrong, just the fact that our world can swallow anyone.
