The Girl and the Spider 2022

The moment has finally arrived: LISA is about to move into her very first apartment, marking a significant milestone in her life. After years spent sharing a flat with MARA and MARKUS, this move signifies the end of an era. While Lisa is excited about the change, it ignites a whirlwind of emotions for Mara.

The day before the big move, the chaos of packing begins—boxes are filled, clothes are sorted, and the initial pieces of furniture are placed in Lisa’s new home. ASTRID, Lisa’s mother, is on hand to lend support during this busy time. Amidst the hustle, hidden longings and unspoken tensions rise to the surface. A chilling dynamic develops between Jurek, the removal man, and Astrid, who finds herself flirting with him. Additionally, a peculiar connection appears between Jurek’s assistant JAN and Mara. The story takes another twist when KAREN, the new neighbor, arrives. Lisa immediately hits it off with her, but Mara can’t shake her feelings of jealousy.

As evening falls, Lisa hosts a farewell party in her old apartment. JAN attends as well, but instead of forming a bond with Mara, he ends up in an unexpected situation with KERSTIN, the quirky neighbor, while NORA, Kerstin’s unnerving flatmate, quietly observes the unfolding events.

After a night full of tension and unexpected encounters, moving day finally arrives. Astrid continues to assist, although their relationship grows increasingly fraught. Meanwhile, Jan becomes entangled in a web of desire that includes MS. ARNOLD, known for her past of mischief involving the neighbor’s cat, and a young pharmaceutical assistant with whom Mara inexplicably feels a connection. Adding to the air of mystery is the elusive chambermaid who once resided in Lisa’s former room, rumored to have vanished on a cruise ship.

Surrounded by change, Mara’s yearning for connection intensifies, transforming the space into a whirlwind of longing and unfulfilled desires.
