Plot: The relationship between Hans and Marie is in tatters. When he decides to leave her for good but insists on sleeping with her one last time, she grabs a gun and pulls the trigger. Hans is dead and his lifeless body has to disappear as soon as possible. In a bar, Marie meets young mechanic Günther, whom she persuades to help her get rid of the body. Together with Günther's friend Fritz, they go on a road trip to the countryside. In the frenzy of life, the murder fades more and more into the background, but the corpse is still there.
