In Christian Petzold's Berlin Film Festival winning drama, four people trapped in a holiday house on Germany's Baltic coast unravel as wildfires loom nearby. Leon (Thomas Schubert) escapes to the seaside home to finish his second novel, and his friend, Felix (Langston Uibel), joins him to complete his art portfolio. When they arrive they meet Nadja (Paula Beer), an effervescent woman whose sexual exploits with her lover, Devid (Enno Trebs), irritate as much as they peak Leon's interest. As the group dynamic shifts, sexual tension and jealousy grow, and the fires draw closer to a shocking climax.
