A nonsensical evening about everyday happiness Men love refrigerators. Michael Niavarani, for example. Charming and mischievous, quick-witted and sharp-tongued. In his first solo cabaret show. Unpaid bills, empty mustard tubes, life partners, and pets! Childhood memories, tax assessments, half-eaten school lunches! Spoiled, perfidious, math teachers! Plastic dolls and burning candles, Islamic prayer books and Kronen newspapers! Everything that has become dear to him over the years has been stored in the refrigerator... And he is afraid to open it. A nonsensical evening about everyday happiness with Michael Niavarani & Band.

The film delicately follows 25-year-old Anna, whose mother has died suddenly. She wants to send her Orthodox mother on her last journey according to customs, but she runs into bureaucratic rules that do not allow Anna to dress her departed mother herself. This conflict brings her together with Maria, a 45-year-old funeral home worker, who in this story represents the hidden fears of death and grief on a deep emotional level.
