SYNOPSIS
The main character is a woman in her 40s. She lives in Vienna, is married and has two kids.
One evening she leaves her apartment to go to do her usual shopping. When she arrives at the supermarket something inside of her stops her from going in.
Instead, she turns away and begins a journey through the evening city. With every step she takes she dives deeper into her inner world.
A conflict between fear, guilt, anger, love, passion and tenderness swells up inside of her.
As the evening turns into night she reaches a hotel where she takes a room. There is no way back for her, she needs to find peace within herself first.
In the middle of the night, almost as if something is pulling her, she reaches the rooftop of the Hotel. Up there she finds a place that only exists for her. There are no direct answers, but she finds a new perspective, a new understanding.
