Pure underwater harmony reigns as Joana (Aglaia Szyszkowitz) and Valentin (Devid Striesow) get to know one another during a diving trip. Seventeen years later their relationship is similar to the San Andreas Fault: a “transform fault” of irreconcilable differences. Nonetheless, a couple therapist (Erwin Steinhauer) is meant to iron things out. Perhaps he can do so before all involved go mad. A fast-paced exchange of blows based on Daniel Glattauer’s stage play.
