Synopsis

Insurance agent Burkhard Wagner has a dream: not to return home until he has closed enough deals to dig his family out of misery. Burkhard embarks on a year-long odyssey on the Autobahn, becoming more and more desperate to close the deals at any cost whatsoever.

Finally, he decides to rest in a motel at least instead of sleeping in his car. The hapless landlady tries to open his eyes to reality, but Burkhard is afraid of waking up and takes severe measures.
