action
After his mother dies, Jakob ( Tom Schilling ) leaves home in the middle of the school year and moves to his father in Berlin. When he was not happy there either, he moved to his sister Petra in Frankfurt; this is where the film begins. Petra ( Anna von Berg ) has just been left by her boyfriend, is pregnant and already has to look after her eight-year-old son Patrick. Jacob decides to help her. When he meets the Polish au pair Wanda ( Alicja Bachleda-Curuś ), he falls in love with her; Wanda hesitates, however. Jakob is jealous of Dirk ( Matthias Schweighöfer ) who Wanda also makes advances. In addition, Wanda's au pair parents don't like Jakob. To make matters worse, he also has to grapple with his former scout buddy Helmut ( Sebastian Kroehnert ). Despite all this, Jakob and Wanda are slowly getting closer to each other.

Reviews
- Lexicon of international film : An excellent youth film , characterized by small gestures and lovingly sketched people, carried by convincing actors. The unspectacular story is told far from fashionable references and, precisely through its reserved nature, creates a space of "youth" that spans time.
