Synopsis

Nina, Brigitte, Alex and Nicole, all in their early thirties now, meet up at a funeral. In spite of the sombre occasion the friends are soon chatting and reminiscing. Having decided to go back and visit their old school, they are unexpectedly joined by another old classmate and friend, Carmen, now an actress working in Germany.

The five friends plus Nina's 12 year-old daughter Daphne, separate into two cars and decide to drive around where they come across Norbert, Nina's ex-boyfriend, who has literally just got married. At the wedding reception the guests are celebrating and Norbert kisses his old flame Nina, making the bride furious, who joins the friends when they depart for the local disco - furious with her new husband.

As the night unfolds, unexpected coincidences and shocking revelations will both reunite these old friends and change their future, forever.
