OBHUT

When Lukas (27) confides in his sister Mara (33) that he is in therapy for pedophilic tendencies, the two are determined not to let it ruin their close relationship. Nevertheless, Mara is torn about how much closeness she can still allow between him and her two children, Lena (5) and Benni (7).

She initially decides against telling her ex-husband Lars (48) and instead begins to follow her brother into her son Benni‘s soccer locker room. Can Lukas really continue working as a coach with young boys, especially since he is “only” attracted to girls?

Lukas feels unfairly judged by his sister. When one of the boys brings his sister to practice, the situation threatens to escalate. Understanding turns to mistrust, becoming a severe test for the siblings’ relationship. The pressure on Lukas eventually becomes so great that he ultimately sees only one drastic way out.
