What Is The Story?

Toms travels have taken him to Berlin, where he is wandering without any particular plan and without a hostel booked. Charlotte, a local bartender, invites him back to her place, offering for him to stay on her sofa. The instant connection between the two strangers would seem to point towards a passionate romance on the verge of unfolding, but as the sun comes up certain truths begin to come out, forcing heavy questions to be reckoned with.
