Synopsis
A routine check-up reveals that Pilates trainer Kathrin needs a new kidney. Her husband Arnold has the same blood type and appears to be the perfect donor, but is he ready? When Arnold hestitates their friend Götz steps forward, upsetting his partner Diana as things get complicated. Confronted by issues of life and death, the fragility of the relationships within and between the couples is laid bare. Eventually, the question can no longer be avoided: what is true love?
