Synopsis:
More than anything, 10-year-old Sascha likes going on bike rides with his neighbour Elli, working on his sound collection and fixing up bikes in his workshop. What he doesn’t like is the new special school he has been sent to in order to learn how to read and write. But why is he always getting into trouble... at school, at home, even with the police? One day Sascha is caught stealing and his mother decides to seek help at the youth welfare office. Social worker Frank gets a one year assignment to help the boy. How practical to always have a personal ‘bodyguard’ at your disposal! Frank convinces Sascha to have a few medical tests done. The diagnosis: ADHD, an attention deficiency disorder. Sascha is prescribed pills, his school performance improves and he gets into less trouble, but his character also changes and his friendship to Elli starts to fall apart. She’s the only one who always liked him for the way he was, but now Sascha even barely recognises himself anymore.
