Lukas has just come out of the closet in the provinces when he starts his new life in the big city of Cologne. But as soon as he arrives at the civilian dormitory, he is the only boy in the nurses' wing. After all, that's where his best friend Ine lives, who is now well integrated into the gay and lesbian scene in the cathedral city. Unexpectedly, he finds himself in the midst of a new circle of friends and also his first flirtation with the extremely attractive macho Fabio. The initial fascination of the unequal boys for each other develops more and more - until Fabio finds out about Lukas' secret, and now they are all forced to risk something for their feelings...
