Logline
A series about a group of psychotherapy patients who attempt to heal themselves.
Derya, Malik, Chloë, and Schröder are all individual patients of Dr. Thomalla's. They run into each other when the psychotherapist's body is found in front of her house. As the police, paramedics, and crisis intervention team go about their work, Derya decides the patients should form their own self-help group. Together they experience some ups and downs and ultimately become friends. The question in Derya's mind is whether she'd rather be a therapist or a friend and, above all, whether she's capable of being either.
The screening will include the first three episodes of the series.
