At his son Konstantin's parents' evening, Philipp Gressmann meets Dolores Sturm - reluctantly, as he emphasizes several times. The woman is completely out of his league. Gressmann, very rich, lives in the posh West End, Dolores in a high-rise estate in the middle of a social hotspot in the city. He is horrified that their sons are supposed to be friends and that his ex-wife even approves of this. On leaving school, Dolores follows in his footsteps in order to escape two very shady characters, Taci and Ali. A turbulent journey through the night begins, in which these very different worlds meet. Gressmann experiences things he would never have dreamed of and has experiences he would rather have done without. His world, so finely ordered, begins to show considerable cracks. To his own surprise, Dr. Gressmann, who is otherwise so detached and coolly calculating, suddenly shows emotion.
