Synopsis
Thirteen-year-old Sarah (Muriel Wimmer) is no stranger to sex and one-night stands, nor is her sixteen-year-old best friend Charly (Antonia Putiloff). It's only when Sarah meets the older Lukas (Joseph Konrad Bundschuh) online that she begins to desire something beyond casual hookups but is that what Lukas wants?
