About
A game in the schoolyard. Max does not stand a chance against Kilian and is excluded from his team. But how is Max going to see Agathe now, whom he fell in love with. Later that day, Kaspar, a boy from his group, waits for him and promises him a magical cure that will help him achieve everything he wants. Although Agathe and her friend warn Max against it, he meets Kaspar at night and agrees to try the magic potion. It is supposed to help him during the important game the next day.
