Flieg steil

Deutschland 2019-2024 Spielfilm

Summary

Ascend

Konnie, a young musician in Berlin's far-right scene, finds herself increasingly isolated after incorporating feminist and queer perspectives into her work. As she struggles to regain the approval of her peers, she crosses paths with Rudi, an unpredictable punk who, frustrated by his own social isolation, is plotting to bomb a bar frequented by neo-Nazis. Seeing his plan as a chance to restore her standing among her comrades, Konnie becomes involved, while Rudi hopes that a spectacular act of violence will earn him renewed respect within the punk community. Together, they are drawn into a spiral of self-doubt, grandiose fantasies, and a desperate desire to belong somewhere.
