Learning to Lie

Helmut (Fabian Busch), living in West Germany in the early 1980s, has a big crush on a fellow student, Britta (Susanne Bormann). He does everything to get to know her, but, when she suddenly moves away to San Francisco, he's devastated. Although he has many romances, he can't forget Britta and continues pining for her. Years later, when Helmut is in a serious relationship, he finds out from his friend Mücke (Florian Lukas) where Britta has moved, and goes off in search of his lost love.
