An asocial, obese German woman lives in a large city. Unfortunately, despite her kind and intelligent personality, she has had a lot of trouble making a connection with people, until she gets a crush on a handsome subway conductor.

In a large city lives a lonesome 38-year old woman. Without friends, she has indulged in food and candy too much and become a bit overweight. In short, she is disappointed in her life. One day she sees a young and handsome subway driver and instantly falls in love with him. In a very short time, she finds out all about him and eventually contacts him.—Mattias Thuresson

Let's face it: Marianne is not your typical dream girl. After all, she's unkempt, carries a few extra pounds, and her social life is practically non-existent. And working as an assistant to a funeral director in Munich doesn't do much to liven things up, either. As a result, Marianne's days slowly slip away until one day, while on her way to work, the rich voice of the subway conductor rocks her world. There's something odd about it, but Marianne can't quite put her finger on it. All she knows is that this sound sparks something inside her, urging her to meet the person behind it. So, with desperate determination and zealous creativity, Marianne embarks on a challenging quest to put a face to the voice and perhaps find a spark of happiness in her otherwise uneventful life. But can these two perfect strangers experience a moment of pleasure amid their monotonous daily routines?—Nick Riganas
