Thinking in chapters is one thing, living chapters is the aggravating other. If an encounter which today calls the morning into question and sets it in brackets, caution is warranted and despair is long in view. Ivahn meets Moritz – Moritz finds a summer that will last a whole year, which he never wanted to promise.

It is a love story set on wobbly legs. It deals with more than just red pear cake and melancholy in advance. Rather, it is a sunny excursion with offset reverberation, which seems worthy of the connection.
