A hot summer day at the outdoor pool: Paul is enjoying it with his girlfriend – until her ex-boyfriend shows up, just back from a year abroad, handsome, athletic and unbearably nice. The higher the sun climbs, the more jealous Paul becomes, and the more desperately he tries to resolve a conflict that may not even exist. A short film by Stefan Titze about love, jealousy and masculinity.
