Stine is born in the mid-eighties in a small town on the East German Baltic coast, too young to understand the end of the GDR. She grows up on the periphery amid the chaos of the nineties, as violence escalates and her parents' generation despairs of the new reality. Her relatives hide the vanished world behind an impenetrable silence, but the convictions that shaped them live on in their children, and Stine starts asking questions she can no longer push aside: about the roots of racism and violence, and about war experiences the GDR never confronted.
