Synopsis

2017, after 10 years together on a gruelling world tour, Gernot, Sascha and Szary announce a creative break from their band project Moderat. Without knowing if they will ever be on stage together again, they are interviewed separately from each other in a hotel room, recorded only by an audio recorder. In intimate conversations, they question the dominant image of masculinity in techno-pop and create a new image, confiding their fears, insecurities and desires. This is a film about friendship and about the pain and beauty of making music together.
