Overview

In this black comedy set in small-town Bavaria, 11-year-old Sebastian thinks you can never be too young to be a murderer.

Deciding he might be able to knock off a few years of his sentence by doing good deeds, Sebastian sets out to find a wife for his father Lorenz. When Lorenz and Sebastian's schoolteacher Veronika fall madly in love with each other, it seems the heavens must be smiling. There's just one hitch: Veronika is married.
