A failed art forger keeps his head above water through contacts with rich women, and he is particularly close friends with an old widow. However, when he becomes acquainted with her children, the artist finds himself in a precarious situation: his son dies after falling into the Spree, while his sister proves to be an unpredictable and aggressive contemporary.

This film follows four young girls into the vibrant, hedonistic subculture of Berlin. Janaina, 17, earns money by making Internet pornography. Her best friend, Emmy, 18, finds the whole city intoxicating, without realizing that she's getting deeper and deeper into a cycle of addiction. Joy muses about love when she doesn't happen to be selling drugs. And Abbie, 16, dreams of escaping to Los Angeles.
