After her father enexpectedly loses his job, 16 year-old Jessica feels the need to do something - something drastic. Her whole life begins to rearrange itself. The "good life" doesn´t seem to matter anymore. The film, which was awarded with the Thomas Pluch Screenplay Prize in 2006, depicts the complex daily life of youngsters in the city of Graz using a hand-held camera and a startling pace.
