The story of the paradoxical relationship of two parents. As he
clears out his parents' house, Philipp, a photographer, comes
across an object that has played a major role in his parents'
lives. Herta and Georg made a fine couple when they first met.
Their son imagines the early days of their relationship and
remembers how his father was forced to flee across the inner-German
border to the West. When Herta and Philipp joined him a few days
later, this could have signaled the start of a new era of
happiness, but the seeds of their separation had already been sown.
In gentle, probing prose, Gert Loschutz describes how Philipp
gradually unravels the paradoxical nature of his parents'
relationship: it was love that destroyed their love. To his
astonishment, Philipp discovers that Herta and Georg had been in
contact all those years in a way they kept secret even from one
another.
