A bursting head – this is how it feels in the body and life of Markus, 29, a very likeable and popular architect. Markus is a paedophile and he hates himself for it. He tries with all his might to suppress the wishes he cannot talk about with any of his friends. When single mother Jessica and her little son Arthur move into the apartment next door, Markus has to keep himself in check even more. The fact that Jessica falls in love with him and Arthur is also very affectionate makes the whole thing even more difficult.
