For a life of pomp and splendor, Bastian takes over the kindergarten of a private parents' initiative as treasurer. The documentary tells the true story of an impostor. It is about social coexistence, trust and setting an example of values for children. Bastian doesn't give a damn about these values. For him, they are just annoying conventions, obstacles on the way to a life with a Ferrari and high-class prostitutes. And for this life, Bastian steals from the kindergarten of a private parents' initiative. For the viewer, this is an astonishing balancing act between right and wrong, between pity and schadenfreude.
