M18 / German / 0 / 115 min
Ten years after the death of his parents, Karl (Golo Euler) finds his life in ruins: he has lost his job, is separated from his wife and child, and can only appease his dark, inner demons with large amounts of alcohol. Suddenly, Yu (Aya Irizuki) pops up like a hallucination and turns Karl’s life upside down. He very reluctantly accompanies her to his parents’ empty house in Bavaria, where the memories of his late parents and his own difficult childhood are all too vivid. Why won’t Karl’s dead parents let him go? What demons are pursuing him? Yu’s Japanese origins mean she has experience with demons and ghosts. Supported by Yu, with whom he falls more and more in love, Karl fights against himself and his past. In order to do this, he nearly dies and has to travel to Japan to find out if he is already a ghost himself.
