A fleeting love story between an actress struggling to create and a former deserter who rejects any safe ground. Andreas and Anna long for the lost values of life. Playing the game of love, they search for what they yearn for. Yet, as victims of the modern era, they only live briefly within passion. Fear prevails. Andreas takes revenge on Anna because her acts of generosity unsettle him. Wounded, Anna withdraws and stops fighting. Melancholic and weak, both ultimately shrink before the meaning of love. Insignificant in the universe, a drop in the ocean, their story is nothing but a moment — just like life itself.
