2021
Drama

3 a.m. in one of those anonymous cities: in the echoes of an exuberant party, a young man and a young woman meet in the red glow of a traffic light. The disappointed expectations for an exciting evening are quickly transferred to the unexpected encounter and soon the way home becomes a journey through the deserted urban night. Playful flirt turns serious when the man‘s eyes wander to a faint light in the sky. Despite her initial fear that he is romantically gazing at the stars, his eyes are searching the sky for Gegenschein: „the sun casting its shadow in the night“. From a brief moment of intimacy, a mercilessly honest game of questions and answers emerges, which finally ends in a confession: „What‘s the worst thing you‘ve ever done?“
