The film, produced by TeamWorxX and distributed by Zorro, focuses on a group of 30-year-olds living mostly in Berlin, all linked to a central trio of two sisters and their brother. None yet have fixed love lives or careers, and all wonder what the future holds in store for them.

The same generation also appears in Sophie Lellouche's French comedy Paris-Manhattan [+see also:
