action
Marlo, visiting a friend in Berlin , meets Kirill during the first "gasp" in the evening. The two young men roam the nightly city together until morning and then meet several times.
After another trip through the city, Kirill takes Marlo to his purpose-built flat -sharing community in a prefabricated building . Carefully and tenderly, they also approach each other physically. However, Kirill sometimes shows irritating, sometimes disturbing behavior. The ending leaves open whether the two can bridge this gap.
