Chloe attends Cologne pride every year – it’s a place and time where she can express herself and explore her sexuality. It’s just that this year, everything seems to be different. The first night of pride weekend, between sweaty bodies and loud music of a lesbian bar, Chloe meets Mel and her world turns upside down. Mel is older, mysterious, and stirs something inside Chloe she didn’t know existed – Is it just sexual tension or true romantic feelings? The world of quick hook-ups and short-term crushes suddenly turns into the beautiful ups and downs of an emotional rollercoaster. Within the color and clamour of one of the biggest prides in Europe, the lesbian universe seems to be the size of a small town. As Mel’s ex-girlfriend steps into the picture, the delusion of a dreamy weekend is shaken up…

“Do you know this feeling when your biggest dreams are right in front of you? That moment when they learn to walk and then fly? Everything else, your whole life, seems to shift.” Kari's been an on and off fan of the band Paper Rings and Promises for 8 years. When the band is looking for a social media intern on their comeback tour, Kari applies. Soon, she finds herself working for her favorite band and sleeping on the same bus as her gay awakening. Marina, said gay awakening, is so much more gorgeous in person, and she's nice to Kari. Really nice. On tour, Kari gets way closer to Marina than she could've ever dreamed of, and the rumors about Marina’s queerness don’t seem so far-fetched anymore. “Suddenly, the only real thing is that dream. I was experiencing dreams that I hadn’t even dreamed yet. Dreams I didn’t know that I had.”
