Synopsis :
Sascha has been working in the Berlin brothel “Queens” for many years. Maria is the new girl, she is independent, maverick and queer. Sascha is immediately drawn to this otherness, Maria in turn is fascinated by Sascha’s supreme ease. The attraction becomes a love that works differently than anything either has experienced before. A promise of great happiness. But then their connection starts to tremble – because of their fear of showing each other their true selves and facing their own abysses.
