In this romantic tragicomedy, Luca wants to graduate from high school after years of depression. Her little dog Mata and her classmate Kurt help her find motivation.

Luca makes a deal with Kurt: English lessons for math lessons to try and pass her math class. Kurt becomes a reliable friend even when things get really bad for Luca.

When does "life" actually work out? When you understand math and graduate from high school? When you know how to take sick leave to postpone your exams? When you find the right guy who loves and desires you - and who isn't a jerk?

"With its fresh and spontaneous narrative style, Philipp Eichholtz 's film is reminiscent of U.S. mumblecore cinema and impacts the viewer through the closeness of the actress to her character." (Cinema)
