He lies in cold, harsh light. His stare is directed towards the ceiling. The view is strangely distorted. Suddenly, two hands appear holding a card. A red swan flashes before his eyes.
An ordinary morning in a single-family home. Leon (Kai Leopoldseder) wakes up in his room. He gets up, goes to the bathroom, washes, and goes down to the kitchen. His mother (Carmen Nowak) reacts shocked to his presence, keeps her distance. Then the doorbell rings. When Leon opens, a girl with blue hair is standing in front of the door. He does not know Rena (Sara Maria Salome), but she seems to know something about him. She warns him urgently not to tell anyone about the swan he has seen. The new family doctor (Christian Trippner), whom he visits at his mother’s request, asks him about a swan.
Increasingly, Leon notices that his surroundings are changing. What has happened? Who can he trust? And who is Leon really?
