When an anonymous student begins sending him transphobic messages, Felix comes up with a plan for revenge. What he didn't count on: his catfish scenario landing him in a quasi-love triangle.

Doch jetzt im Sommer herrscht Aufbruchstimmung, alle haben viel zu viel Zeit und am See mit Badekleidung verwischen die Standesunterschiede.
