Ms. Stern, a 90-year old Holocaust survivor, has a rich life in Berlin. She spends time with her daughter. She goes out with her granddaughter and her eclectic group of friends. But rather than become a burden to those she loves, Ms. Stern wants to end her own life -- and she is determined to find a gun with which to do it. But, while Ms. Stern may be done with life, life appears to feel otherwise, and Ms. Stern’s quest for a weapon brings her surprising encounters with strangers.
