Summaries

Steve recently moved to Frankfurt for work. His wife is a stranger in the new city, bored and vulnerable. She meets her husband's boss who is going through some big events in his life as well. They start to have an affair.

Svenja (Nicolette Krebitz) and her boyfriend Oliver (Mark Waschke) moved to Frankfurt so that Oliver could have a professional career in the banking metropolis. But a chance encounter between Svenja and Oliver's new boss, bank manager Roland Cordes (Robert Hunger-Bühler), changes everything: Cordes is immediately fascinated by Svenja and desperately wants an affair with the young woman. Since she accepts the first flirtation, but rejects it more, Cordes relocates Oliver to Indonesia, where he is supposed to take on a well-paid but also extremely dangerous position. Left behind in Frankfurt, Svenja finally embarks on an affair with Cordes, which soon threatens to get completely out of hand .—frankfurt-tipp
