Description/Synopsis: Philipp Hochmair is a young and successful actor working for the most important theatres in Vienna and Hamburg. He spends his time learning new texts, rehearsing and performing, gradually losing touch with everyday reality. But when Philipp meets Walter, with whom he starts an ambiguous friendship, and has to face his neighbor Victor’s immigration problems, he is reminded that life is more than a stage. (Karin Schiefer, AFC)
