Nurse Asta wants to feel needed. For 20 years she has worked with aid organisations all over the world and is now back in Germany, much against her will. Her services have been terminated and she can no longer pursue her passion. What’s going to become of her life? Sitting next to a revolving door at Munich airport, she smokes cigarette after cigarette while confronting her past.
