Synopsis

Looking for easy money, three young dropouts auction themselves on the Internet: one sells his future, one sells his past and the third one his soul...

In Hamlin, an imaginary German city, three young outcasts squat an abandoned

greenhouse. To avoid the hazards of poverty, they have taken on survival jobs:

Moritz lends his body to the pharmaceutical industry, Liocha sells his sperm and

Filou walks the dogs of the rich. One day, when Filou takes the dog Google back

to the Internet Café, he has an idea: since everything can be sold on Internet

auction sites, including clouds, why not sell oneself? The three likeable schemers

offer to the highest bidder that which they deem no longer necessary: the Russian

boy Liocha sells his childhood memories, eternally provocative Moritz sells his

remaining years and Filou, the dreamer of the trio, sells his soul. What was meant

as a game turns sour when Lila, the pretty employee of Money Logistics, brings

them money at the greenhouse. All three of them make the bitter experience that it

is better never to get rid of the small things in life. While the bids are soaring,

between virtual wealth and genuine poverty, Filou is caught in his own trap and

cuts himself off more and more from everybody and everything, feeling

increasingly estranged with the world and himself.
