Twenty-nine-year-old Hanna (the magnificent Maresi Riegner) escapes from her violent husband and follows the therapist Otto Gross to Monte Verità near Ascona. There she discovers not only the fascination of a self-determined life, but also her passion for photography. The fictional self-empowerment story shows the dilemma of bourgeois women in the early twentieth century and offers a cinematic memorial to the birthplace of a social utopia.
