Helmut has to celebrate his birthday and is confronted with the uncanny deconstruction of his bourgeois life. Even the couch leaves the boring party early. As Helmut’s life crumbles away bit by bit, the reason for many a development in the protagonist’s life becomes clearer. A perfectly timed, whimsical declaration of love to evanescence by Nicolas Steiner.
