His stepmother Tilda (Bettina Redlich) is trapped in it. Everything is dark around her, she has no idea where she is, next to her only two bottles of juice and a mobile phone – her only connection to the outside world, to the police and to her stepson, the undertaker Max Broll. He goes on a search with his best friend Baroni (Jürgen Vogel).
