Summaries

Sunny is a singer in a band which is constantly on the road. She therefore leads a relatively restless life, which she cannot afford to give up, having to rely on the fee she gets paid..

Sunny sings in a band trying to establish themselves in the East-Berlin music scene. They play regular gigs in small towns, but Sunny feels out of touch with the audience and her life as a whole. She begins a relationship with amateur saxophonist and studied philosopher Ralph, who writes her a very personal song, but his obsession with death and unfaithful lifestyles is not for her. After quarreling with a bandmate who harasses her and telling off a show-host, she's thrown out of the band. Abandoned, she struggles to regain control of her life.—c.winter
