Synopsis

14-year-old Leonie from eastern Berlin is conquering the world as a teenage influencer. Millions of followers are at her feet, and companies shower her with products. When Leonie‘s parents recognize the enormous economic potential in their daughter, they decide to take over her management. They want Leonie to have a better life than they had. But Leonie‘s permanent self-reflection and the merciless pressure to produce content has a downside that adrenaline, fame and free sneakers can’t compensate for.
