Summary Germany in May 1945, four days before the end of the Second World War: A Russian reconnaissance patrol occupies an orphanage on the Baltic coast and tries to come to an arrangement with the residents. A German Army unit still resides on the beach, getting ready to defect to Denmark. Both sides are tired of fighting - only a 13-year-old orphan wants to be a hero and tries to provoke a confrontation between the wartime enemies. But the categories 'friend' and 'foe' have long lost their function according to war propaganda. The situation escalates nonetheless, because morality and immorality are not bound to nationalities. A film about and against war, improbable and yet based on a true story.
