- A short film in one take: The last days of World War 2. We find ourselves in a solitary Nazi-outpost hidden in the middle of the Alps. The German commander orders a young soldier to be shot by a platoon. Finding himself in a hopeless position with certain death awaiting him the soldier cries out to the platoon to stop the madness of war. the platoon hesitates and so the commander has to take the blood on his own hands. All of a sudden an American jeep with two GI's arrives in the outpost. We find out that the war is over. What started out as a montage of facts becomes a one-take revealing the true horror of war. When one sees the whole picture nothing remains the same anymore and right and wrong switch sides. Caught inside a narrative loop the spectator must question his own perception.
- The slightly shy meteorologist Ralph, is secretly in love with his flatmate Annette. She only sees him as a good friend and leads a carefree lifestyle, having one affair after the other. While folding the laundry, Annette asks Ralph for the umpteenth time to leave her the apartment for the evening. He duly obliges and spends the evening traveling around the city by tram without destination, imagining fantasies of Annette and her lover that make him suffer. Suddenly, an attractive young woman sits down opposite him. She gives him the opportunity to break from his downward spiral. However, when he receives a text message from Annette, who asks him to come home, he lets this opportunity slip through his fingers. Annette is sitting at the kitchen table in a state of despair, as her lover did not show up. When Ralph appears, she asks him about the rain as a means of distraction. Ralph, quite the me-meteorologist, predicts the start of springtime and a real friend for her. They get closer and closer to each other and almost kiss. But as soon as her cell phone rings, everything seems to be lost. Later on, Annette and Ralph are lying in their respective beds. Annette receives a text message: the lover who stood her up apologizes and her world turns back to normal. Ralph, on the other hand, finds a pair of her panties in the pile of laundry on his bed. He looks at them briefly before throwing them into the laundry basket with a self-mocking smile on his face. Outside it starts snowing gently.
