Info
Nini is a German girl and Jameelah an Iraqi girl with a life-long desire to become German. They are inseparable and like to rebel more or less, especially during breaks between lessons when mixing a little alcoholic cocktail they call Tiger Milk. It’s a stressful time: the decision on Jameelah's naturalization application is coming and they are also hoping for "it" to happen and they practice for “the main event” by observing the hookers who are streetwalking. But when they witness a murder, everything comes to a stop - their plans, their future, their lives.

17-year-old Miku is “just some dude” devoid of personality, at least according to his brother. After a party-turned-rager that nearly destroys his home, Miku is doomed to spend the rest of the summer at their family cottage, where both his parents avoid dealing with their own relationship crisis. But the calm of the Finnish countryside takes an unexpected turn when Miku meets Elias. The boys have nothing in common except for their age and dysfunctional families. But something is pulling them together. Miku finds himself in the eye of the storm as Elias forces him to deal with his own sexuality, all the while the parents marriage heads towards destruction. Elias has his own baggage to deal with and finds it easier to just discard Miku from his life instead of starting another broken romance. Miku has had enough. For once, it’s time for him to take charge of his own life.
