Paul (24), a kindergarten teacher, is with Isabella. Paul tries to drown his insecurities with alcohol. He drinks to be braver, funnier, more relaxed, to forget or to suppress unwanted feelings, mostly with his friends, sometimes to the point of blacking out. Also on the evening of the annual village get-together. When he wakes up the next day, he has hardly any memories of the night, but instead has a bad hangover and a blood-stained T-shirt. It turns out that Adem, the ex-boyfriend of his girlfriend Isabella, was killed. Paul can't remember anything, but has a motive. Detective Inspector Anita (32) and her partner investigate, and they also question Paul. Anita has problems of her own. She also comes from the small town and is trying to escape her past trauma. For Anita, sex is the means of keeping her demons at bay. Pretty much everyone in the village knows that.

She gets short of breath from incense cleansing rituals, dream diaries, wish lists that are supposed to be thrown into the fire bowl and other such esoteric hocus-pocus. At a winter solstice party thrown by her older sister Svea just before Christmas, the more rational climate researcher Liane encounters a world that is foreign to her. The scientist meets Mani, who is walking the spiritual path and who somehow fascinates her despite all the differences. Her relationship with her long-time boyfriend Philipp is less good. After an argument, he flies to Gomera alone. She stays behind, not only worrying about the weather being far too warm, but also has to put up with her Christmas-crazy neighbor and his family and receive her conspiracy-obsessed in-laws-to-be while Mani stays overnight with her. On Christmas Eve, fate and the weather really start to shake up Liane.
