13 Semesters

From the sticks to the big city:
Moritz (called Momo), an ingenious cook, leaves his small village after taking his A-levels to study Mathematics at the university in the big city.
An initial phase of settling in to his new life is swiftly followed by Moritz‘s complete disorientation as fellow student Dirk conscientiously attends lectures and seminars and writes his essays in order to finish the studies as soon as possible.

But since money is tight, Momo starts up a business with a miracle cleaning powder which is, however, doomed from the outset. He falls in love with the lovely Kerstin, enjoys going out on the town partying, spends a year of practical training in Australia, and fails his graduation exams four times, just to find out that mathematics isn’t really what he is dreaming about.
Now, 13 semesters of sitting in front of his professor, it’s really his very last chance to pass the examination… A story about eternal students and how to do the right thing in life.
