Sasha is a young, handsome musical wunderkind living in Cologne with his immigrant family. He also has a very secret crush on his sexy piano teacher, Mr. Weber. When the man of Sasha’s dreams announces plans to move away, his adoring young student must grow up fast and come to terms with not just his own true feelings, but also his homophobic family, a 'girlfriend' wanting more than he can give, and his budding sexuality. A stellar cast (who easily navigate between drama and comedy) leads this refreshing take on the coming-out story. Hilarious romantic mishaps and the ups and downs of finding one’s own way are brought to the screen with a unique style and verve that has won the hearts, and ears, of audiences at film festivals the world over.
