Markus Goller again delivers highly emotional cinema in this film about one person's decision to take a sobering look at himself.
In a world in which people are often expected to make excuses for not drinking alcohol, Mark is a king without a crown. One night, when he goes to move his car while intoxicated, something finally happens: the police stop him, take away his license, and order him to take a remedial driver instruction course. Mark makes a bet with his best friend, Nadim, that he won't have another drink until he gets his license back.
