Story
A group of 14-year-old teenagers at a secondary school in Zurich – completely normal teenagers, with completely normal longings for love and acceptance. But the power of social media, with its glossy selfies and constant pressure to be cooler and sexier, is increasingly forcing kids to deny their true feelings. A tragedy takes its course in which it is ultimately almost impossible to distinguish between perpetrator and victim, guilt and innocence.
