- It seems to be a journey to freedom that 937 Jews take up in May 1939. They had been "allowed" to leave Germany, they should at least temporarily be admitted to Cuba, which had worked for other refugees before. There is great hope - even though the shipping company had asked them to pay the last penny, even though the occupation has already been infiltrated by numerous Nazis. But the joyful courage gives way to a frightening realization: Cuba no longer lets anyone in the country.
- The back cabinet must always remain free. Like a kind of bed and breakfast. Always tidy and available at any time: Herta only moved into Gustl at that time under this condition. Because the missing child comes back. Sometime. And suddenly he stands there, a prodigal son. But it's not who you've been waiting for, it's Samir, 17, and a Syrian refugee. Perhaps out of humanity or sentimentality, but maybe also out of defiance towards Gustl, who wants to throw Samir out of the apartment immediately, Herta enforces that the young man may stay. Or must. Samir's arrival sets in motion a process of reconsideration: the mere presence of the German language is not enough for her to break up the stuck everyday life of Herta and Gustl and make her question her monotonous relationship.
- The music video Tuansackl (Gym Sack) by the Austrian band Pizzera and Jaus tells the story of a man who is inconsolable because his girlfriend has left him. After days of crying in his room, he finally emerges into the street, only to run into her and her new boyfriend. The other guy turns out to be a hipster with a gym sack on his back - a fact that completely shocks our hero. ('Does he still go to school?', he asks.) After another few days of helplessly following the two lovebirds on social media, he decides to win the girl back. He gets himself a new outfit and starts talking to her in a cafe - only to be knocked unconscious by her new lover. When he wakes up again, the pretty waitress of the cafe takes care of him. The two young people are instantly smitten with each other. They leave the cafe hand in hand, happy about their newfound love - at the same moment when the other girl starts arguing with her lover, smacks him and then runs away.
